made of the most silky soft houndstooth with a silk charmeuse lining. I think I found the houndstooth suiting at Pacific Fabric last summer; the silk charmeuse was (let's all chime in together) A Find at Goodwill.
Last month or so I joined a Mini Cooper club and went on my first rally.
I was to go on another Mini event this weekend, which was held at Maryhill's Stonehenge on the Columbia Gorge, but last week I broke a toe and it is really painful trying to shift gears for more than a short trip at a time. So I missed out on the photo op here:
Sigh. I did finish my next pair of socks, a lovely soft bamboo wool blend in purple stripes
They're a bit big, but my poor abused toe is quite happy and warm. I also dyed a couple of skeins of wool with Kool Aid and am waiting to knit it up and then felt it into some elf slippers...

oouuuchhhh! hope the pain is not too severe! and too bad, that you missed the "mini" adventure but there will be other great events. I like the socks and finding silk charmeuse at gw! Too bad, that we don't have any store like that here (or maybe it's better, since my stash is already pretty big :) )
I know all about broken toes!!
Well Goodwill is not what I want it to be fabricwise but I do find good things there sometimes.
Hi Annika,
my reply to your email keeps coming back :( do you have an alternative email adress? I still get yours, so maybe you could send me one?
Hugs

Love that purple yarn! And thanks for your comments. I hope your foot is better now!
Hey, you. So, do we want to answer emails this year, or what? Sniff.
