Grab your knitting needles and come relax with me.

I'm calling it CRAY-ZEE!
Ms Amy from Knitty is out of her mind. Literally--I got proof--just LOOK at her blog. You can see it plain as day. She's nuts. Too much Knitty work and she has left her senses (her Canadian cents!).
Sadly--I can see this coming for me. (Lorelei will someday totally separate me from my senses) And I see the allure. Sometimes, when I walk by the needle section in my Hobby Lobby and see the size 0 16 inch circs, I pause....and wonder. Then I STOP myself.
But when I start talking about seriously doing this call my husband and let him know that it's NOW time to take away my needles and take me away to a nice quiet soft place.
I'm working on a pair of socks on 2 circular needles in size 0...these will not be used again...I promise...it is so small its well...stupid :) they are taking me forever!
My Neverending Socks (knee highs) are on size zero...that's not crazy. Crayzee is knitting a scarf in lace weight using size 0s. But you know--I am sounding more and more like Amy--two knee high socks isn't that far away from a scarf...
Although it IS laceweight as opposed to my fingering...it's a slippery slope...
Wheeeeeeeeeee!

Hey, thanks for the post about my raisin socks, that was cool. You can't go wrong with one of Cookie's socks, I tested the Mona and she named it after my lost beloved dog, I knew her before she was famous. Where abouts in Texas do you live? My sisters live outside of Houston and I have lots of family around Waco in West, how I miss those kolaches!
