You might not be able to see this but the sock is actually nicely scalloped. It is Scallops Cuff Socks from Crystal Palace using Panda wool in red cinnamon colorway. I love that yarn!!The ornament is from my fav ornament book (well dog-eared) from Ann Stearns. I used a blended hologram filament (Sulky) and a glow in the dark thread. We have had the giggles in my office as we took turns going in the dark bathroom to check it out!! I am going to do some of Mark Myer's angels in this and will post soon.
I am still thinking about podcasting and am going to make a trial post today or the 'morrow to see how it flies. I learn so much from the knitter's blogs that I think it begs to be done by us too!! If I can figure out Skype and if anyone is on skype we can tape interviews too! Cool!!

Very pretty ornament. I will watch for your pod cast. My interest is perked.
The ornament is lovely. I have not tried that as of yet. I must learn to knit socks too. Looking forward to the pod cast.
Very pretty ornament. I envy those of you daring enough to use glass ornaments. I can only use "satin"-covered styrofoam because I'm a klutz.
lovely socks!

Your ornament is beautiful! I'm with Marty... I'd never dare use a glass ornament!
Thanks sooo much for the great comments! Not too much of a tease, but I am writing down stuff I would talk about in a podcast...kinda copying my favs in the knitting world! Stay tunes.
DrLaura, you can link to me. I really love Chrystal palace yarns!!
Come on!! Glass is great! Seriously have never broken them. Love those patterns in particular. Usually always include them in my christmas exchanges!
