Back in March I was in love with Turkish socks. I loved the patterns, the colors, the shape... but not so much the tassels.
In fact, I couldn't make toe nor heel of the instructions in the pattern for the tassel. I skipped it. And I never wore them, either.
My motivation? Today, I realized that TOMORROW is the day to turn items in to the San Juan County Fair, and, although I rarely submit things, this year I happen to have a few items just sitting around, finished. Usually I've sent them off, or have worn them to beyond show worthiness. And I was appalled that I didn't have any decent socks to show off! Except my Turks.
I bit the bullet, and decided that no stupid tassel was going to get the best of me, so I re-read, and re-read the instructions, making a tiny bit more sense, and voilá!
I put them on, and feel like kicking up my heels! (again) Those little tassels bounce around, making my legs feel happy! I wonder what category they will be in for the fair? "Other"????
