I’m on vacation until after Christmas so I started a sock.
Ingredients: yarn, pattern, needles
I haven’t knit socks in 4.5 years.
These are for Michael, so I’m using Socks That Rock mediumweight in Monsoon from the Blue Moon Fiber Arts Rockin’ Sock Club about a million years ago. If you use 56 stitches and US2s you’ll get vertical stripes, but 60 stitches and US2s makes a lovely spiral of color. That does mean that I have to modify the Simple Skyp Socks stitch pattern by two stitches and hope that the ‘heels by number’ site still exists (it DOES). But still.
I’m knitting socks.
what a gorgeous colorway to resume sock knitting ……
I adore sock knitting. I had a goal of 13 pair this year in 2012. I fell short, but knitted more socks than every before this year. Im giving 2 pair away as gifts on THursday. IM letting the girls PICK from them
Beautiful yarn. I haven’t knitted socks in over 12 months, since moving to the tropics I’ve worn socks once in 12 months. There may or may not be a correlation…
I am also picking up socks again for holiday knitting.
That is a great colorway.
You know.. I’ve never knit socks. Ever. The closest I’ve come are some of your alphabet critters’ feet. (:
Merry Christmas Emily! Enjoy some well deserved personal time. Thank you for all you’ve given in 2012, can’t wait to see what 2013 brings 🙂
