The Third Dog:
Now, how could I resist a pattern called after the designer's husband's nom de plume; "3rd Dog"!
Note: This is my favorite pair of STR socks that I have ever knitted. The pattern was easy and moved along really quickly. I knit the entire pair while I watched hockey and football. The pile for the Christmas Basket is getting along very nicely - I actually have two more pair on the needles!
We are almost ready for Christmas here. Puck and I have a complete BBQ pork sandwhich menu made up for Christmas Eve and the nieces and nephews are all getting Pook Toques for Christmas. Really. Teen and I brought a couple home from Vancouver and they have become the hit amongst the 8th graders in my son's group of friends.
I haven't toured my Christmas decorations, nor have we made any college decisions, we seem to be in a state of stasis. I do have new yarn though! I'll show you later...

Love the hats and those socks!
Shocking out of the blue change in post-high school plans just took place at my house ~ this was much easier when I was just in charge of it all and only had to consider other opinions.

Your new socks seemed to add three more pair to my queue on Ravelry. I think I can handle it though. The socks look great (as usual) and I can't wait to see the yarn that has found a home in Minnesota.
I love the cabling on those socks. Are you going to be in the STR club this year? I keep thinking about it, but I don't think I can pull it off this year.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!!
