I washed them with a large batch of socks this week and both have holes in the heels. Click here for the Ravelry Project Page. At least 1-2 other pairs in this batch were knit before 2017 and they look great. Crafty Adventures Mom & I did some Christmas baking with Riley and Millie. We made Snickerdoodles, Blondies and no-bake protein bites with oats, peanuts and chocolate chips.  Decorating the tree together. I talked on the last episode about getting wool strips of fabric from Dan’s friend’s mother. In this episode I chat with Mom about supplies my Nana might have for braided rugs.
