I met Mary at the coffee shop last weekend to knit. We both made the bunny buddy blanket. We knit for around eight hours and my fingers were killing me the next day. We modified the pattern a bit to alleviate holes. Mine came out a bit stiff and looks like a bunny pot holder. I am in the middle of making it again in green fuzzy yarn for my friend Kathy's baby. Hopefully it will come out better! Here is the pattern:

Inspired By Elise Socks
Hey, Gals!
Hope everyone is having a good new year thus far! It has been a while! Are you guys still knitting? I've been working on an afghan constructed from the yarn of 2 afghans that were made by Jim's aunt (now deceased). One of them was a wedding gift, and the other was a gift for Jim. They are of great sentimental value, and we just didn't want to throw out the afghans now that they're frayed and worn out. I'll post before and after pictures once the afghan is completed.
Recently, I had to drop the afghan project in favor of making the socks pictured here for my sister-in-law, Debi. I modified the "On-Hold Socks" pattern
(July 27, 2009 posting) to include a basketweave cable in the center flanked by a "thistle" pattern. They're made from the toe up--my favorite method for making socks.
