We’re back from the true windy city – Regina – following a whirlwind graduation weekend. Here’s Chris all dressed up in his uniform:
Oops, wrong photo.
We returned to the winter city for a few short days:
The movers are working around us as I type but I made sure to hand pack my precious cargo.
I considered bringing it with us in our new car (photos forthcoming) but it scares me to think of leaving it in a lonely parking garage in Sault Ste. Marie as we sleep.
I now bring you an important bulletin:
FOUND!
One hand made sock.
Location: Corner of Maclaren and O’Connor in Ottawa at 9:30 a.m. Thursday, October 30th.
Please claim ASAP as I will be moving tomorrow.
My dear Ottawa readers, please pass on the word and distribute this picture as you see fit. I can’t bear the thought of a sock knitter crying him or herself to sleep after so much lost effort.

Congratulations to Chris! I love him as a midget Mountie!
So sad about that sock! Are you bringing it to the Ottawa LYS’s to see if anyone can identify it’s owner? Perhaps Chris can check for DNA and run it through the system?

Mountie husband: awesome
Snow: not awesome
Found sock: I have no idea who it belongs too, but have a good feeling the yarn is Regia Galaxy (new yarn-store-employee eye)
The Saulte: Be sure to stop by the big loonie in Echo Bay on the way up.
Your stash: Dude, don’t leave it in the car, SLEEP with it!

Have you posted on ravelry concerning the found sock? If you aren’t on rav,I would be happy to post it for you. I’m sure that someone is very upset over loosing it. You are great to try to help find its owner!

That sock is mine! Thanks so much for posting it on Ravelry. My best guess is that it was stuck in the leg of my jeans the last time I took the whole works off.

I see from your comments the sock owner claimed her sock – phew!
Have a safe trip and I’d sleep with the yarn!
