Walking Away

"Make a man a hat, his head will turn.
Make a man mittens, he'll wave good-bye.
Make a man socks, he'll walk away."
--Knitting proverb

God damn it. I hate it when those stupid little proverbs are true.



Sigh. I didn't even try to make him a sweater.

Well, I'm sure there are men out there that if you make them socks they'll want ANOTHER pair..

Hang in there girl! Come on over tomorrow night and knit and have a beer!

I hope you get the socks back. They are nice socks!

Hope you have a good weekend. Hopefully I will see you for some knitting time on Tuesday.

Hang in there. :)

Don't feel you did anything wrong. (Been there, done that too.) Men tend to walk away from a relationship when they feel they're getting in too deep and they're not ready for it. The right one will come along. You do not want to keep the wrong one.
Hugs, Vicki

I know there is another man out there who will be more appreciative of your talents and when you make them socks, he will want you to make a matching pair for yourself !!!
