Here she is, Ms. Dogs Steal Yarn Sock 2005

pageantwinner.jpg

Ms. GWTF: I want to thank each and every one of you who voted for me. When Cari Kitchenered the toe of my second sock, I expected a quiet life, a modest life lived in the sock drawer and in Cari’s cute little red shoes. Now, thanks to you, I have a greater purpose. It is my hope that we will see the scourge of Second Sock Syndrome defeated in my lifetime. I will work tirelessly to remind knitters of their responsibility to finish what they start. I will work tirelessly…but not yet. It’s hot out there and I’m wearing cashmere. I’ll see you in the fall. Late fall, most likely.

October! Our crusade begins in October! But first, a long nap. Um, Cari? Is there air conditioning in that sock drawer?

  5. Damn. Oh well, I guess it was unrealistic to expect world peace from a pageant winner anyway.

  10. I have a pair of socks over here just DYING to take her out on the town…. East meets West? A long-distance love affair?

  11. I’ve heard rumors that one of the leading sock tabloids has pictures of Ms. GWTF in various stages of lurid unravelling. I would imagine they are false documents, and I can recommend a good sock attorney.

  21. those are THE most adoreable cute sock pictures I’ve seen in a blog ever! They are tempting me to pick up sock knitting. I have knitted for more than 30 years (nearly “all” my life thihi..) but only maybe 1 and 1/2 sock.. Tanks for sharing! yes I will definitely knit a sock or two soon, thanks to you. And btw – I find your blog amazing – one of the best!! 🙂
