I often say that every pair of socks I knit is a gift from her (because they are).

Today is her birthday. Happy birthday, Mama. I miss you. Thanks for all the socks.

work cut out for me.

The bag itself is in decent shape. The leather could use some tlc and the strap has stretched in 30 years, but I rarely leave the house without it.

The strap sleeve is 15 inches long today — more than a third of its eventual length. 😬
I didn't think it would stand upright this time! 😋

The fun part of this Snappy Sock sample.

Helically knitting two different strands that look made to be side by side. This time the left sloping pattern integrates beautifully into the overall look.

Am I dangling the cuff of my smallest Snappy Sock in slow motion?
Yes, I am.

I have a bit of charting to do before getting to the fun part.

Knitting my messenger bag strap sleeve at a blistering pace of one-half inch per hour. 😜 Each stitch is worked twice so it's also something of a yarn gobbler, but the result will be worth it!

There was almost nothing to adapt from the flat version, and knitting helically prevents jogs at the end of every round. The cast-on stitches are loose, but I can take care of that later.

and colorful. I think I can knit the stitch in the round. Because it's a two row/round repeat, maybe I can knit it helically as well.

My gauge swatch in this bright tonal blue yarn came out well.

Now that the gusset of this short sock is finished, I have 45 rounds to go before toe decreases. #KnitLearnLove

Friday Harbor has a #FirstFridayArtWalk of galleries and studios. This necklace by Cady Davies found me there.

This afternoon was leisurely, a good time to finish the gusset of this short sock. If it looks familiar, that might be because it's the fourth sock I'm knitting from Universal Yarn's Filly in colorway 101 Bloom.
