Jan 12 post that went astray

Today was my husbands 60th birthday party. We celebrated it today as I will be out of town on his real birthday the 19th. We had a nice time, he certainly enjoyed seeing everyone who came. I bought much too big a cake, but he's taking it to work and I doubt it will last long there!I finished the socks I had been working on, just in time as another pair has bit the dust. I will reknit the toes once, but when the sole blows out, it's time to say good by to that pair and knit another. I also started a pair in Trekking that I bought just before Christmas. The colorway is surprising me, I thought it would be short bursts of color but these are rather long and blend very subtly into one another.I also finished hat #25 and started #26. This time I'm using larger needles and double yarn just for the heck of it. No photo's today, don't want to take the time to upload them and move them around.
