What was Lost is Found


Over two years ago I finished a pair a socks. I had gotten the yarn with a gift certificate from one of my sisters as a Christmas present I believe. The yarn is Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in these jewel tone colors. So then I went online looking for a sock pattern to use it with. And I found the Lacy Trellis pattern and that was it . So i printed up the pattern. The one hard thing about the pattern the first row of the lace pattern since it started with a yarn over so I would slip on the last stitch from the other needle to keep the yarn over from sliding off  and then move the stitch back for the next round. I finished one sock and second sock syndrome struck.I started it and then another disaster struck. I lost the printed copy of the pattern. I went online  to search for it again searching the same way I did before but I couldn't find it. I figured it had gone off line.
I did finish the second sock the lace pattern stuck in my head. Then yesterday thinking to put the pair of socks up on Ravelry I had to try and find the pattern again. So I tried different variations of the pattern name in Google. Lo and behold, there was the same picture, the same colored text as I remember. So now I've got it marked down where it is and another printed copy just in case I find some yarn to knit another pair.
The socks are just a little bit big for me so I might see about selling or giving them away if I can find someone to give them to.
Didn't finish the baby socks yesterday but finished the heel late last night so now I'm working on the foot and almost at the toes so should be finished soon where I can start on the socks for the socks in a month deal.
So rented New Moon on iTunes yesterday and tonight will watch that on my iPod while working on those socks. Already own Twilight so might watch that as well.
