No, not an inability to move forward with my Ravenclaw socks (in fact I'm about to decrease for the toe on the second one!), but my current internal debate about whether I can justify buying a pair of wooden sock blockers.
I really want a pair of these, but also covet these.
Then I found this tutorial.
A couple of garden shots:
The white agapanthus we put in last year is flowering for the first time.
This verbena self-seeded from last year's crop. It's about 7 feet high!

Wow! The placemat blockers look like a great idea! I've always wondered if the wooden ones would warp if I actually used them for blocking. I use plastic ones, but sometimes I wish I had another size, and I don't want to fork out more money for sock blockers.
I am so impressed at the speed with which you are knitting the Ravenclaw socks. I'm still fiddling. I'll probably decide that what works best is a perfectly plain pattern!
Hi there! I got your package today, that came quick from across the sea! Love them, very adorable. Looked through your profile, many similar interests, but my teen is a girl! Thank you again ...lovely garden pic's! Tanya
Gald you like them Tanya. Don't know which would be more hard work and worry - a boy or a girl! :)
