comments: this was cute, fast knit, and feels very nice!
Finished: a few days after New Year's 2007
OK, I know I need to work on keeping better records. That's what this is for. But I don't feel a need to jump up on finishing something just to mark the day and time when it happened. I think it's more important to remember that my son lost his first tooth on December 27th, 2006, than what date exactly I finished another pair of socks... don't you?
