It feels good to be the giver, but it's also fun to be the receiver.
Aren't these socks gorgeous? Soft greys and a peachy pink - I absolutely love them. Blogging friend Nancy at https://wyomingbreezes.blogspot.com/ is the person I credit with helping me get a Quilt of Valor group started here. She has made over 250 Quilts of Valor over the years, and she also does a LOT of knitting. She chooses the prettiest yarn for socks, and she made a pair just for me!! I'm a lucky gal. I'm wearing them today, and they are soft and comfy. Thank you Nancy!!!
I did get to be a giver this week too. At the December meeting of the local DAR chapter yesterday, we brought 2 things to be donated in the community. Cookies were collected and taken to the local fire department. Hats, mittens, scarves, socks - all collected and will be taken to Salvation Army before Christmas.

Nice socks! Nancy is such a sweetheart, I admire both of you for the Quilts of Valor!! Blogging community is a good one!
Aren't knitted socks the best!!! I love wearing mine.
I hope the socks are a good fit: please let me know if they aren’t. I hope you enjoy them.
Those socks are very pretty and look really warm. Definitely a great gift to deal with the seemingly sudden cold spell.
