SOMETHING NEW!

Something new to me--no, not knitting socks 
but knitting Helical Stripes! 
I did have to watch YouTube several times but I did it and it is a really fun way to do the stripes without a job at the end (because there is no end!) and there is no carrying a color up of an inside thread.  I think this would work well with two colors of scrap yarn in the future, too.
 
Oh, and among projects Mom and I did, we also took a trip to the doctor's to x-ray Dad's wrist after a fall--yup, he broke the radius!  First time for a broken wrist and a cast-
nice to try something new at 91!

  3. I think about those Helical socks all the time. I've watched the video but I just don't get it.
    Ouch....I bet your dad's not happy having to be in that cast all summer.
