Isaac 5 and 7 weeks

Here are new pictures of Isaac at 5 & 7 weeks.
He is growing cuter everyday if that is possible because he is just a honey bunny.
He is so much more aware of his surroundings and follows you with his eyes now.

SKP2008 Ziggy Socks #4

These are the 4th pair of socks for the SKP2008 sock pentathon group.
What a challenge they were to do but did learn how to design a short heel without doing the wrap & turn. Riped heel back a total of 7 times (5 on one sock and 2 on the other) Almost gave up but I am not a quitter so stuck with them.
Whew I am glad to have these finished because I lived and breathed these socks for 3 days just doing the heels. LOL
