Miss Betty and socks


Miss Betty is in Louisiana until after Christmas, so I have no one to knit with or with whom I can discuss books until she gets back. Before she left I learned that she has no hand-knit socks. She knit (and is knitting) socks for every one of her children, their spouses, her grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and quite a few nephews and nieces, too. When her husband, Bill, was alive she knit all of his socks. But she has never made any for herself.
So I think before too many weeks pass I need to knit a pair of socks for Miss Betty so she can enjoy the feel of hand-knit socks.

  2. I received for the first time ever a pair of hand knit socks!

    An employee gave them to me for Christmas.

    I feel special.
