I printed off the bear pattern.

Knitters are such nice people

I was at Indigo books last night picking up my knitting magazine, so I wondered over to the craft section to look at the knitting books and there was a lady there checking out the knitting books also we got chatting about making socks and I mentioned I so want to be able to knit them and she started laughing, saying I always make the first sock then never get around to making the 2nd sock..LOL!
After that I went to Save on Foods to do a food shop and of course I wondered over to the book/magazine section, there again was a lady reading the knitting magazines, we go chatting about the magazines and she made a comment that she noticed a few of them recently had info about making socks and that reminded her of her Grandmother and a story she use to tell about the War and how her Grandmother and her Grandmothers friend use to knit socks for the soliders and how her Grandmothers friend always made lumpy heels and that they use to laugh about the poor soliders that got her socks.. LOL! I thought that was such a sweet memory for her to have about her Grandmother and knitting .. :)
