I turn 80 today, and last Saturday my kids threw a party- no gifts, said I. My daughter said she couldn't control my friends, and I received a huge bag of sock yarns, enough to knit 80 socks!! At least 40 people contributed a ball each. I shall have to live to 110 to knit all this up, when you count in my stash. Very grateful, I think!

What a great gift idea for an avid sock knitter, and Happy 80th, that's wonderful. Well, that was a small, but appreciated gift.
