I was thinking about making a huge sock to go over my plaster cast but I didn't get round to it. I've got to go back to the hospital on the 31st so hopefully the cast will be gone soon. Sarah When I had foot surgery I had a beige knit socklike thing to wear with the special foot sandal. I embroidered all around the top edge of the sock (just a twining vine) to cheer it up! Alison |

ducking & running to avoid being hit by the sock!!!! JJMolvik "YarnWright" wrote in message ... On Tue, 22 Aug 2006 15:28:39 GMT, Mirjam Bruck-Cohen spun a fine yarn The Funniest sock i ever knitted was for my stepfather , i knitted him a Bank Sock , for all the coins he always had in his pockets. You know how folkstories say that people colect money in socks ,,, thus i knitted the sock with a rather wide base and high Leg, and knitted some words into this as well ,, He used it till the end of his life . Years ago i taught knitting to a woman who had only one leg, she insisted on knitting always 2 socks , and never explained it why . mirjam --- Y'know, a 'bank-sock' is actually a very good idea, AND can be used as both a weapon, if necessary, AND to smash out a window of a car if one finds oneself in deep water.....
