Just Because I Can. . .

By -
February 3, 2014, I wrote about my hand-knit socks and was struck by two of the comments that were written that day. Both ladies are frequent readers who leave comments. To show my appreciation, I decided that they each needed a pair of hand-knit socks.

Click on Connie and Ann's names below to see the reactions to their hand-knit socks.

    What a sweet thing for your to do Nancy!! I love both pair but Ann's socks are yummy! Our daughter is always asking me to knit socks for her nurse friends because she says, "The world would be a nicer place if every person was wearing hand knit socks."

    I'm leaving a comment - not in the hopes that I will receive a pair of socks - but because I simply love them. That second pair made out of Paton's Kroy yarn just spoke to me. Nicely done! (both the socks and the good deed!)

    You are such a sweetheart! I tell you the love of sock knitting amongst some of my favorite craft/knit blogs finally persuaded me to take the leap. You all are so inspirational and hello! How beautiful is it to watch the sock yarn transform?
