Sock Picture, Chappy Picture
So–heels. My socks finally have functional, fitting heels. Isn’t that exciting?
Of course, as usual, apologies for the color. This teal is just impossible to photograph (especially by flash at 9:00 at night), but oh, this looks so pretty in person. Sundara does beautiful colors!
Meanwhile, the actual socks? Garter stitch short row heel. A texture stitch on the top of the foot, and now working up the leg. And, naturally, I’ve got both socks on the needle, so both are at exactly the same point . . . you just can’t see the other one. It’s dangling in the shadow, so you can’t see it, but it’s there. Trust me.
I was asked why I didn’t have a Chappy picture yesterday, amongst the sky photos? I’d hate to disappoint his public, so here you go. I did take a couple pictures of him yesterday (of course), like this one. One of the only ones where he wasn’t looking (staring, yearning, obsessing) at the gate to the yard.
He’ll get to run and play tomorrow, though, I hope. Our town is opening a dog park and tomorrow is the grand opening. We’re going to go in the morning, but Mom is nervous–she’s always nervous when dogs are playing with other dogs–so I’m not sure how long we’ll stay. Long enough for him to have fun, though! Hopefully, I’ll have some pictures to show you tomorrow.
And, basically, that’s all I’ve got for you tonight. Have a great weekend!

House Calls
Have a great time at the dog park. By the time they opened one here, Bandit was too old to enjoy it, but we went a couple of times anyway. It was fun seeing all the different dogs playing together.
Great socks. You knit such lovely things and your celtic dreams is coming along nicely as well. I knit mostly socks haven’t committed to a large project in awhile. My socks are 2/3rds done at t his point. I am makint the STR Cedar Creek Sock Club socks and they are nice. But the main reason for my post to to tell you that Chappy is a Handsome Devil for sure. I could just hug him.
I love dogs and knitting can you tell? I really enjoy your blog everyday. Cathi
I went once to the one in Cinci but I’m way too overprotective of El & Pearl. They’re both more people dogs than dog dogs.
Man that Chappy is one photogenic boy. I loved his clean look! Congrats on the dog park opening. CHappy looks so happy on the table. He is doing a sit right?
Nice freebies too. I too have problems photographing with a flash at night. I love available light.
