I've had the wool that I used for these socks since my daughter was about seven years old. That's a decade ago, now, scary to think. I had intended to make it into 'elven' slippers for her, but I never got around to it.
Ever since I hit my head a lot of things have gotten harder for me, but oddly enough knitting has gotten easier. Before, I had this issue of my brain 're-setting' or 'flashing' and I would lose whatever I was doing for half a second. It made hand writing, knitting, anything that needed a constant stream of concentration... difficult. The one silver lining, and the one thing that has gotten easier is that. I don't have the constant 'flash' re-setting of my concentration. I have massive daily migraines that need medication to control, and I can't drive for more than half an hour because of the visual processing issues... But now I can knit. It's finally relaxing for the first time in my life. So. Here are some socks for my daughter. The yarn is sparkly and reminds me of a night sky with stars.
