And yes, I've been asked the same thing and no, they literally fall in the floor when you tell them what your price would be (I've thought this through you see), they just have no clue how much goes into knitting something like that. As always, you blow me away with your expertise.<br /><br />The socks - you may be "Charmed to Pieces" but I'm in awe. I can do that with fabric, but can't imagine kitchenering those stripes evenly!<br /><br />DD's dying is also gorgeous - don't you dare theive it - it's HERS!<br />*wink*<br />Happy New Year!<br />(((hugs)))Nana Sadiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13337300042637714815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-86296478748617398812010-12-31T06:51:57.460-08:002010-12-31T06:51:57.460-08:00I really love how long that stole is, as well as t...I really love how long that stole is, as well as the pattern.

Those toes are great, don't you love when you do a little detail like that, even if no one else sees it?

The shawl is fabulous. You're right, the muggles will say gee, you could make money selling those things, but the instant I saw it I knew it had already yielded tremendous treasure.<br /><br />And the socks just make me smile, especially the 2 color Kitchener, which is exactly what I did on some mittens a few years ago. So satisfying.<br /><br />One question before I go - is there enough room in your house for two stashes? From the looks of that purple yarn, your daughter has started hers off quite notably.twinsetellenhttp://twinset.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-84788230487796297122010-12-30T18:03:58.597-08:002010-12-30T18:03:58.597-08:00*crash*
