Some Finished Socks and more Important stuff too

Sometimes finished knits get posted here right away...sometimes not. These three pair of socks have been neglected and have been crying out for their moment of glory...such as it is.

These are made with Noro Kureyon Sock yarn with a US1 needle. They are Long!
These are warm and wool, made with KnitPicks Wool of The Andes with US 4 needle, ribbed 6 X2 with a little baby cable in the inside two stitches every four rows.
And Last, Socks for DH in Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Hand Dyed...super warm and thick.
Far more importantly is the tragedy which happened near us. A church nearby (Maryville First Baptist) was attacked by a lone gunman shooting the pastor as he preached. They don't yet know why. The pastor has two girls and a wife who are stunned. The whole church is stunned. Still, they give testimony to the love of God, even in the midst of tragedy. Please join me in prayer for the family, the heroes who stopped the gunman and are hurt, all the people in church who witnessed this tragedy (including teens and young children) and for the gunman and his family.

Ack. There is so much shooting going on these days. Pretty new socks. Did you dye the yarn for your husband's socks?
