I have been trying to limit the sugar/dairy intake for a number of reasons but I *happen* to have a weakness for these, hideous, confetti-like treats:

Yes indeed, the Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake bar is one of my faves and I have had one or three during the past couple of days. And for proof that the unconscious is a powerful, powerful thing (merci M. Freud!) I seem to be creating knitted confections that suspiciously resemble things I am eating. Worrisome. Very worrisome.

These are the socks that are currently in progress. They are the Wavy Lace Socks from  Favorite Socks: 25 Timeless Knits from Interweave . I am really enjoying knitting them. The yarn is from my stash, in keeping with my yarn embargo, and is hand spun and hand-dyed by an Etsy seller. It’s 100% superwash merino and it really knits up like a dream. I’m doing the two-at-a-time thing again because I really don’t think I could ever complete a second sock if I had to start all over again once the first was done.
