Aaaaaah!

So there I am, knitting along happily as I work on my latest baby blanket (SERIOUSLY, PEOPLE, STOP HAVING BABIES FOR A MINUTE SO I CAN CATCH UP!), using my shiny new knitting needles from Knit Picks, when my shiny new interchangeable knitting needle came unscrewed from its cable and dumped a bunch of stitches into the ether.

GAH!

Some quick thinking rescued them, but let me tell you, that was NOT good for my blood pressure. I shall have to watch out for that in the future.

I was thinking that for my very hypothetical First Pair of Socks I would knit baby socks, then find someone random to give them to.

This is an excellent idea. Actually, one of my books has a "class sock" that the author gives to her sock knitting students, so as to finish all the bits in one class.
