…handknit socks growing on trees!
and, the return of the “little car.” Isn’t it cute!? It spent the winter in the garage, but now that the weather’s warmed up, I zip all over town in this.
It’s practically free to drive, we just plug it in once a week. Our little town only covers about 4 square miles, and I can get absolutely everywhere in this.
I especially like how the hubby has me lock it to the flag pole… it looks a little silly, and somehow sad :o)
While the little car’s out for the summer, these socks are finished just in time to put away to wait for Fall. 
More Koigu, color P410, done up in the Cable Twist pattern. I used my new Addi Turbo Lace size 2 (3.0) 42″ circulars and did them magic loop, toe up, with a short row heel. I like ’em!
Next- I’ve picked up my Bonita shirt again. Tammy showing her beautiful finished shirt got me all excited to work on mine again. Heh – I’ll wait until I have more than the exciting inch I’ve managed to knit to show you some progress, although I must admit – I LOVE the turned hem.
Happy Knitting!

The little car is so cute! It would be great to live somewhere small enough to use that. Hope there are no big cars that could smoosh you!
Love the color in the cable twist socks. And what an adorable little car. Just what I need around Salem, as long as I didn’t have too many groceries, LOL. But very doable once I retire.
Too cute!
The car is adorable!!!! What type is it? And where can one get one? Little old me is going to learn how to drive :).
Isela – the car’s called a GEM (Global Electric Motors), but I don’t think they make them anymore :o(
Love those purple socks! I’m heading right home to see if I have stash yarn that would work for Bonita.
Your socks look really great! I like the looks of that pattern a lot.
Ha! What a cute little car! I love it. Love your socks, too :~)
Those are great socks! I love them!
Gorgeous, simple gorgeous! And that car is pretty darn cute too.
Beautiful socks, and I love that car.
I had forgotten about the little car—I just LOVE it. It would never work where we live–enjoy!
Question though, what do you lock it to when you’re out and about in town? One of these would be perfect for my mother-in-law at her new vacation home in The Villages down in FL. I’ll have to talk it up to her.
That little car is the cutest thing I have ever seen!! And with the price of gas these days, it makes a lot of sense too. I want one. 🙂
Your socks are gorgeous too. It will make things a little less sad when fall comes.
I love that you can get around town in your little souped up golf cart!
I’m a bit envious of that little toy!
Lovely . . . I’m making a similar pair now 🙂
Oh my gosh, what an adorable car! That’s road-approved? It looks like a golf cart with attitude. =)
I like that pattern more every time I see it. Your little car is SO cute holding hands with the flag pole.
I love your socks! They are absolutely beautiful & I feel a tiny bit sad that they will no be locked away for the summer in a drawer. Oh well, all our socks will get their much needed love in the fall & winter.
Your little car is too too cute.
I really like the Koigu colorway you picked out. The socks look fabulous. There’s a whole bunch of GEM carts that are used on campus. I wish we could get one for puttering around the neighborhood.
I love your little car! Its so cute 😀
your koigu socks are fab, love that colorway!
Oooooh, I love those socks and have added them to my queue!!!
