I wish I had the energy and the strength of a dragon. Maybe then I would be able to do six people's laundry, dishes, housework, + of course my own work and yet still be able to whip up some sweaters, some socks and maybe a bedspread or two on occasion. A bit quicker than I obviously am able to.

I am not complaining. Life has treated me so good and I am a very lucky person. And quite often also happy, I have to admit!  I just wish that the week had 8 days and that every day had 30 hours. Just a tiny addition to the present schedule in common use! Wouldn't that be great?!

While I'm waiting for that to happen I continue knitting. I find a lot of joy doing so. I find a lot of joy thinking about new projects, reading other blogs and getting inspired. Thinking about yarn makes the pairing of 100 socks a little bit more fun. Thinking about different kind of needles makes me forget how boring it is to empty the dishwasher. Aren't we positive today??!

And wearing a pair of dragon socks makes me run even faster!

That's the coolest toe I've ever knit!

details:

pattern: Here there Be Dragon Socks by The Keyboard Biologist

yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock nearly solid color "cedar", approx. 75 g. (this colorway doesn't seem to be available at "get knitted" anymore, but is still to be found on LL's own pages:

It's such a lovely golden/olivey green, slightly, beautifully variegated..)

needles: 5 dpns, 2,25 mm

modification of pattern:

omitted the short row heel and did a heel flap with garter st. edges as seen in "embossed leaves socks" ! Best heel ever!!

OK. I am getting lost in a pair of socks. House cleaning - come and save me!
