So far with about 5 pairs under my belt it has worked. Your monkey sock looks great. I did the Monkey Swap 2.

How is Miss Nikko doing? She is so beautiful.<BR/><BR/>I hear ya with the empty nest syndrom too. My youngest daughter (The Princess) just moved to Connecticut to take a full time nanny job and the oldest finally moved out. The house sure is quiet - even with four dogs.<BR/><BR/>Love your blog - will be checking in often. ggMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03393380099409765165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363968.post-42885467216557379362007-09-07T00:17:00.000-05:002007-09-07T00:17:00.000-05:00I love the kitty bed.

He loves it.<BR/><BR/>Your socks all look so pretty. I've been envious of your sock blockers for quite awhile, but I've overcome that...I've ordered a set for myself from Loopy Ewe:)<BR/><BR/>Europe!

Big sigh......<BR/>We want details!<BR/><BR/>The monkey sock yarn looks so yummy - I keep drooling over sock yarns in fall colors. Love all that stuff you got in the last sneak up, too. THose sneak ups are hard to resist. I've been very tempted, but I'm holding out for some Wolmeise (sp).<BR/>You've got to finish your socks so you can wear them - sooner or lat er we'll get some nice fall weather that just cries out for hand knit socks. ; )<BR/>How sweet that Sumo is so attentive to Nikko.rohanknitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09204689018718224728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32363968.post-9488075392813558072007-09-06T13:42:00.000-05:002007-09-06T13:42:00.000-05:00I love the socks.
