The Slow Green Sock

I am discovering that following a chart is not my favorite way to knit, but this sock is so pretty that I keep working at it. The book is Knitting On The Road, and I decided to put ribbing at the top of the sock instead of the edging shown in the photo.

In garden news, here's how the center garden bed looked a week ago. The beans have since reached the top of the trellis, and we are picking dozens of cucumbers, beets, and sugar snap peas. This week we are picking the apples, hoping to save most of them from the squirrels. These apples ripen in the summer instead of in the fall, so it looks like I will be putting up applesauce this week.
