Sock Progress:
I have two pair of just plain vanilla basic style sox on my needles.
This Forest Green pair has re-enforced toes
with ribbed instep and leg.
Yarn: Lambs Pride SuperWash Wool Sport yarn.
Needles: #3 forty-inch circular
They're ready to begin the gusset
then on to the slip stitch heel.
I'm following Wendy D Johnson's
method as seen on page 41
of her book
Socks from the Toe Up

ReplyDeleteYou mentioned a double scoop of vanilla. I was thinking ice cream and this is making me hungry for Central Dairy ! ! ! Love the sox ! ! !
ReplyDeleteWow these socks are really cool. Love them! I just so admire you for all your talents.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry honey that I have not been here in a while. I have enjoyed browsing your site and catching up.
I have seen those aprons before and wondered how they could be dressed up and you certainly did a great job with yours.
Thanks for your caring comment today I really appreciate you.
Hope you are having the beautiful weaqther in Missouri that we are having here.
Love ya

The socks look great! Reminds me that I should get out my circular needles and get to work on more socks!
ReplyDeleteNice to see that you are knitting again. I still have the pair I started last spring on the needles.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm - let's see two prs stopped at the same point. What does that tell me? Time to bite the bullet and knit the first gusset. You know what they say, the first gusset is always the worst.

Your socks are looking good, as usual, however, I truly love the bright striped ones!
ReplyDeleteHi thanks for your lovely comment on my button post! I love these socks, they look really comfy!
ReplyDeleteHoney thanks for coming by and commenting about my ghosts. It meant a lot to me that you liked them. I have not done anything in so long so I was proud of this small accomplishment. Now if they are still standing in the morning. lol
