Basic Sock Knitting

My sock knitting is coming along slow but sure. Only 7 more days with the stabilizer on my arm. I am so looking forward to a sling,  physical therapy, and being able to more my arm more. I am knitting just a basic sock. Using Patons Kroy Socks FX yarn. I think that the color of the yarn is sooooo very pretty. It is called Clover. I am using size 1 DPN, knitting from the top down. I have about 4 inches knit on this sock.

left handed

my right arm is broken, and in a stabilizer. i feel like crafting but i can not knit, spin, crochet, or weave. but i can cut paper with a paper cutter, string beads, and glue with my left hand. by the way i just found out today that i can do these things with my left hand. so i got out mt book binding supplies and went to work. the result is this little tablet. i am tired now and will probably take a nap. but it was nice to be able to accomplish something.
