Dagnabbit, I knew that I wouldn't have put so much weight on if I'd stuck to tennis rackets....

That's a great tradition! Heh

Great job on your Jaywalkers.

Happy New Year!

Both of those came out so cute! My intrigue with the Bed Socks continues... hmmm... I wonder if my grandma would like these?

Your Jaywalkers look great! They striped so perfectly on the heel flap. I have started a pair and I noticed the same thing on my cuff.

I, too, am wondering why tennis rackets? It is a very cool tradition. Chocolate anything is excellent!

One of my family Christmas traditions is to play badminton in the park after lunch. Wonder if we could organise some chocolate badminton for next year with chocolate tennis rackets and maybe some malteasers for the shuttlecock...

I can appreciate the chocolate tennis racket. I love it!
I'm crazy about your socks. Hmn. Resolution for me: I will knit a pair of socks.
Have a great new year!

Hej! I didn't know you were from Norway. Anyhow, been reading your blog and am loving it. I'm going to tackle socks soon...well, after I finished with my scarf and my iPod-Sock..although I could do them all parallel together, but I don't think my bf would appreciate having balls of yarns and needles aflying everywhere on the couch. *LOL*

Have a great New Year!

Love the socks, although it annoys me that I can't quite figure out what the stitch is on the handsome bed sock!
Happy New Year!

I can think of few things cuter than a chocolate tennis racket.

Both (all!) of your socks are looking great. I just finished a pair of Jaywalkers -- the cuff is looser than the leg, but it doesn't flare. It would probably make sense (if you weren't on sock #2) to cast on fewer stitches for the cuff and then increase in the first plain round before starting the incs and decs.

Have a happy new year, Kris!

Your socks look great! I have been wanting to do the bed sock pattern. My jaywalker sock is doing the same silly ribbing thing! Let me know if you find a solution!

The socks look great, i especially like the bed sock.
I know exactly how you feel about having a de-clutter, i plan on doing that today although i don't know how much will be done in this 42 degree heat, phew!
Happy New Year!!
