Flying Monkeys

No, I'm not referring to the magical flying monkeys that my friend Joe suggests will someday fly out of his butt to perform some impossible task (though I don't think Joe really needs any help performing impossible tasks since this is the man that went to a Morrissey concert and ended up with Morrissey's shirt - in one piece - after Moz flung it at him). . .

No, this is a knitting blog, dammit. So I must be talking about Monkey socks.

The flying part comes in because I finished them at the Newark airport while waiting for our flight home to SF. Here I am modeling the socks at Gate 136:






Fortunately, wearing handknit socks on one's hands is not considered a security risk.

Thanks to Jimmy for the action camera work! And check it out, he was just featured on Drawn! (What took them so long?!?!!)
