Comments on: Jolly Good Old Chap http://www.adamknits.com/2007/05/30/jolly-good-old-chap/ The incoherent ramblings of a knitting, yarn dyeing grad student, who also happens to be a guy. You got a problem with that?

Anyways, I am loving how your sock is turning out - do you have a 10st/in gauge? The yarn looks like it would be a bigger gauge, but that might just be the picture. I wanted to knit those socks for my husband but 9 or 10 st/in will be the end of me.</p> <p>Also, mothers will ALWAYS ask for grandchildren even after you give them some!!!</p> Hey there, I’ve been lurking on your blog for awhile and I can’t believe this is my first comment.

Speaking of grandchildren...you know how much I want to be a grandma, but I'd prefer that you get married first! If you don't do it in that order I may have to hurt you. Love the socks...they look even better in person. Someday I may finish the sock that has been hanging around on my knitting needles.</p> <p>Love ya~</p> Those sweet little kiddos look adorable in their hats!
