365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

A Foot And A Half
Day 94: "The world needs more silly." Friends often hear me say that, so here's a fit of the sillies, Crow-style. A friend gave me some utterly delightful merino/nylon "washable-wool" fingering yarn for Christmas which I immediately assigned to become a new pair of socks. I started the first one about a week ago using the wrong pattern and didn't realize it until I had the cuff done. I ripped it out and started over with 12 additional stitches. By the end of the day, I had a new cuff. Socks are fairly quick and fun, so I've split the work into daily goals: cuff, heel and gusset, foot and toe, i.e., three days per sock. As you can tell, I have a foot and a half done (actually, a foot and two-thirds, but for the sake of preserving the visual pun, we'll leave it at this).
