holly jolly take 1Knitting up my handdyed Holly Jolly yarn as thick socks for my daughter. 48 stitches on size 3, gauge is 6.5=1inch. It’s a bit dense on 3’s – if I were someone else, I’d take it to a 4 or 5. Stripes at this gauge are 6 rows long. I’m loving this and want to dye more ASAP.

It’s Thanksgiving. You can’t go wrong with the back o’ the can Libby’s recipe. ‘Nuff said!

I hope you and yours are having a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.

ETA: My mom mentioned that my pie crust looked extraordinarily even. She’s right – I used a frozen crust this year! And let me tell you, that crust added nothing to the pie. I won’t be using storebought again. There’s a balance between timesaving and skimping, and this crust crossed over that line!

    Eee! The sock looks fantastic!

    I go with a crustless pie. It uses bisquick and sorta self-crusts. It’s super easy too. You throw all the ingredients in a blender and then mix & dump into a pie tin and cook it for an hour. It’s so good!

    pie crust

    This is from Laura:

    The Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust is my standard shortcut. Much tastier than frozen, but not as much work as homemade. You have to place it on the pie dish and work the edges yourself.
