My creative space

Rhabarber and Rhubarb

My creative space this week is NOT in the rhubarb patch. I'm just showing off my rhabarber socks. But I have been working on these socks on the sofa when I get the time. I think I've come a-cropper in the instructions somewhere between the leg and the gusset, but I might have just worked out a fudge so it'll be OK.

I hope.

Take a look at other creative spaces, rhubarb-filled or not.

  3. If they have a gusset does that mean they are tights? I love that you photograhed them in the rhubarb patch.

  4. Now I've come over all bewildered. I didn't know socks had a gusset. And 'gusset' is a terrible word - the same as 'crotch'. I always link the two, which is why I'm feeling all uncomfy-like.

    Gorgeous wool, lovely socks though, (I'm squinting past the gusset/crotch!).

  5. You girls are so funny! The gusset is just the part under the heel that comes "in" and gives the sock shape!!

  6. You have just reminded me to get off my laptop and get outside in the garden! It's a beautiful day and I need to get the vegie garden happening. The word gusset just cracks me up for some reason...! xo

  13. If I could marry any vegetable, it would be rhubarb.

  14. The rhubarb certainly shows off how scrumptiously rhubarby those socks are going to be. You might have to make a pastry skirt to match. Or something...

  23. Perfectly named colour and perfect pattern for the yarn! Glad you found a fudge for the pattern, I always try to do that too, better than ripping (although slightly naughty!!)
