And so the battle rages.... It started on May 9th, and this is my first weapon, resulting in a "kill" on Wed., May 14th. These were made with Tofutsies official Sock Wars color.
My 7 year old son thinks my war name, Anakin Socknitter is the funniest thing he's ever heard. He's been very supportive during the battle, which is more than I can say for my 22 mo old (she insists on having attention and wants me to play with her instead of knit socks.... imagine that!) On Mother's Day, my son's wrapping paper for my gift was Sock Wars III themed. Notice the balls of yarn with knitting needles through them (like a skull and cross bones, he says). There is also warriors fighting with sock weapons and a picture of me knitting my weapon... Too cute!
My target graciously sent her sock in progress to me via express mail, received on Thursday May 15th at noon. After a weekend of knitting, the pair is ready to mail to her target; they will go in the mail this afternoon. It looks like I will get at least 2 "kills" in before meeting my own demise, which could be at any time.
May the fleece be with you!!!
