therea a plus side to your kids having bed socks, you can turn the heating down in the bedroom :smile:

My boys like wearing knitted socks to bed, they wont wear them in the daytime though. My older son is developing expensive tastes, he asked for luxury socks, he reckons opal, regia etc isnt soft enough.

I have two socks done that unfortunately are not mates. One is a DK pair that the first went perfectly and the second i have frogged 10 times now so i ahve put it away for a while. so instead of finishing the second sock of the other pair, i started a new sock pattern and a hat.

And we won't mention that durn raglan sweater that still isn't finished....i hate having 435 stitches on a needle...takes a week to knit a row
