on still life ...

By:  carmen bethel

like the painters of old ... Still Life ...socks are my still life ...
the usefulness...
the anatomy ...
application of color ...
the tube .. types of heels (over the years) ..
sideways ... two needle ... crocheted or knitted ..
gauge ... color ... materials  (yarn)... tools

why ...what... who... when ... where

why not start the day off right  ..
by ending with a good night ...
 ... wear your socks to bed ...

Taps
Day is done, gone the sun
From the lakes, from the hills, from the sky
All is well, safely rest
God is nigh.
Fading light dims the sight
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright
From afar, drawing near
Falls the night.
Thanks and praise for our days
Neath the sun, neath the stars, neath the sky
As we go, this we know
God is nigh.

I am thinking about the 72 hour knit-in .... it will soon be October ...
Is America a country that has no culture of it's own...?  What will be
knitting for 72 hours ... well,  one thing will be funeral socks...like why not knit
a pair of socks to wear to your own funeral ... (wicked witch type scene)
Ladies ... are you a pants person ... socks  for your last scene...
