Socks


I cast on 3 pairs of socks on New Year's Eve, and haven't made much progress on any of them. I powered through my indifference on this one earlier this week, at least it is now looking like I'm doing something. The colors are pretty, the pattern is nice - I'm just not thrilled about it for some reason - perhaps not enough endorphins compared with the colorwork excitement?

I can see how the subtle color changes aren't as exciting as some of your other projects, but I think these are very nice. I like their lacy appearance.

Colorful Booties and Socks

It is the Year of Colorwork, but mostly what I've done so far is produce a few color ful items!  I've been making this baby bootie pattern for years, mostly from leftover sock yarns.  This particular yarn is what remained from last fall's Flamewalker Socks .  That these booties stand up all by their jaunty selves makes them particularly appealing. These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

Wingspan, Part I

I have two skeins of Classic Elite Alpaca Sox yarn that absolutely refuse to become socks. They pool, they gap, they otherwise cry and carry on in all sorts of ways. So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!
