Knitting the Camino

[knitknigel]

I'll be walking the Camino beginning in early May. I will also be knitting socks along the way, blogging my experiences and asking people to support Alzheimers research through my blog:

You can start looking at it now. I began the blog in late March, 2009.

Cool socks!! I'm hoping to do some knitting along the way, too, and right now socks are my specialty (mostly because they are one of the only things I know how to knit, along with dish cloths and scarves)!
I noticed you knit a shell into them - How cute! And how would I figure out how to do something like that? Somewhat of a novice, here...

Nigel!! FAB socks! I've already forwarded a link to your blog to my knitting-Nazi friend! SHe's tossing about the idea of joining me for part of my camino this summer, but we Yanks have so little vacation time, I'm afraid she may not be able to make it. But she might be inspired to knit me some socks for my August birthday! :wink:
A question for you, though: you said that you and Geordie walked in 2004? That was a Holy Year. Did you find it chaotic? Too crowded? ANy advice? I am going June 12-July 12 (or thereabouts) this year. ANd I am a tad anxious. ANy reply would be appreciated!
Happy 2010!
Nancy

one of my very favorite gifts of 2009 was a tiny knitted "sock monkey" made by a knitting pilgrim from California!
