Generosity unbridled

If I've ever in my life doubted kindness, or lost faith in generosity, or just plain gave up on strangers (or those met on the internet), this past 10 days has gone above and beyond full restoration. Really. I'm standing in a circle of swirling leaves, blown away! This is the pile, PILE, of sock yarn that has arrived at my house from various knitters across the country. All counted there are 52 hanks of yarn, making a whopping 34 pairs of socks! 34 pairs! Before, where I was having trouble knitting socks because I didn't want to use my last hank, now I'm having trouble because I just don't know which yarn to choose fist. Should I grab some vespa yarn, some skeintilly clad, some lornas laces, some fleece artist, some lisa souza, some koigu? These are the problems everyone should have, much nicer than the which bill should I pay this month variety. Thanks everyone. Really.

And then there was the box for Little Bit. Lots and lots of playmobil, lego knitghts, lego racecars and toobers! Yep, it was a hard day at land and sea...

And just in case I gave you the impression that my life is about anything but socks right now, here's Scout's Swag that just came in the mail yesterday, along with the wonderful sock blocker which is currently blocking the swag from scout that came last month. The pattern is Monkey from knitty and it's really wonderful! I should have the 2nd one finished today or tomorrow.

Baby (19 days), birthday (11 days), and FO (customer) news upcoming...
