I have finished one sock with the heart motifs. The leg part needed to be sewn together like the seam at the instep and sole.
I still need to weave in the ends of yarn on the inside of the sock. Here is a picture of the sock.
You can't see the heart motifs. The pictures of the heart motifs come out fuzzy.

The Bald Beanie
I took the bald beanie pattern and yarn to church. I casted on as I was riding on the subway. I knitted no more until I got home and that was to cast on more. I haven't woven in anymore on Bob's sweater yet.

Rotterdam Orchestra
Earlier, I returned from Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center, New York where I heard the Rotterdam Orchestra, play some Brahms, Bartok and another very modern composer. The evening was splendid. Came home and went straight to bed.

Bob's Sweater and Etsy.com
I wove in the ends on the other sleeve and checked to make certain that Etsy.com could process purchases. It can.

The sock with the heart motifs
I am still working on the sock with the heart motifs. I am at the toe and I fear that the sock will be too long. Today has been a busy day and I am very tired.

President's Day
President's Day found me working on the sock with the heart motifs. I joined the instep and sole and began working in the round toward the toe. The pattern is useful, yet, I wonder if I am to continue the heart motifs to the toe. The pattern suggests not to. The picture is unclear.
I wove in more of the loose ends of the colorful yoke sweater. I am almost finished weaving in the ends of the yoke. Next, I move to the body and the sleeves.
I worked on the magenta beanie for Etsy.com and packed away the stashes from earlier projects and knitting needles/ notions in a suitcase.

Gusset decreases and Valentine's Day
It is Valentine's Day.
After completing the pink socks I find myself back at the dark sock with the heart motifs. I am working on the gusset decreases and decide to do more so that the total number of stitches on the sole and sides is about 50. Now, I am knitting the sole out to the length of the instep, which I notice is very long, so long that the toe decreases will make to sock too long. I will have to frog some of the instep.
Here is a picture of the heart motifs. Here is planned a picture of the heart motifs. I have taken over seven pictures and the motifs don't come out focused well. I will try again later.
