Feeling miserable!

Well , DS2 did indeed pass his cold on to me! And his brother and his father..... so we are all feeling a bit under the weather and very very tired.
I had hoped to visit friends this weekend , but that is out of the picture now, however I will need to organise some outings for the boys as it is their October Holiday week.
After last weeks frogging fiasco I have cast on and am knitting two "comfort" projects , one is the lovely cashmere/silk and another in the silk/mohair .
Guess which patterns ? Go on...... post your guesses in the comments you might get a surprise .
As promised in previous post -:

Hi there.
We met once at the tramsay sunday knit group - I was pregnant and have now had daughter number 2 (8 weeks old already!)
I hope you don't mind but looking for some advice about socks! I have only done 3 pairs, the last in lovely Araucania but I only wore them a few times but the foot is a bit felted (long walk, hot feet!) Is there anything I can do to prevent this or is it just part and parcel of handknit socks?
Hopefully see you again one sunday once I know up from down! We are also all full of the cold here, must be going round. Jules X
