As busy as our Boston/Ny trip was, I was able to make some progress on the Paraphernalia socks:
By the way, the second one has NOT been a breeze. This shot was taken after I ripped back about 2 inches because I belatedly realized I didn't decrease enough times along the gusset before continuing on the foot. Regardless, I still find the socks charming and I can't wait to finish them so I can put them on my feet and combat the bitter May rain sweeping through the backyard.
