introduced me to a wonderful Rav group Itty Bitty Knits
They are having a Patchwork Sockalong hosted by Susan B Anderson
but I just jumped right into the fray.
Just grabbed a yarn and began knitting threw in a bit of Fair Isle knitting
and before I knew it a week later I have this pair of sox!
Not too bad, eh?
But that was last week
this is this week.
But that was last week
this is this week.
*******************
The first pair was nice
but not quite what I had in mind.
but not quite what I had in mind.
I pictured something 'hot'!
hmmmmmm . . . ? ? ? ?
Ahhhhh, now I know
I want something brighter
wait, wait,
no just brighter,
nope,
I want, I want > > >
spontaneously LOUD bright
So, now we're getting there:
Isn't this a hoot!
More to come, you can bet on that :*)

Your socks are getting brighter and better with each pair, or shall I say with each sock! They must be a delight to knit.
ReplyDeleteHugs!
A.M., sweet friend, this was the most spontaneous EVER!
Deletehugs
I like them. You may not believe this, but I'm knitting a pair of scrappy socks. Mine aren't totally spontaneous because I'm doing them 2AAT and the yarn will be in the same order on each sock, however, I am putting colors together that normally I wouldn't. I've been watching the Singlehanded Knitter for a couple of weeks. I like her podcast and applaud her for being an inspiration to us.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Dianna.
DeleteLove knitting 2-a-a-t and know you'll bo yours in no time.
hugs
Your socks are famous since I started visiting I was always amazed with you craftiness in making socks ,but this one is very impressive indeed the colors are super .
ReplyDeleteTheodora, thanks for stopping by and commenting. You know how much I love knitting sox, but let me tell ya. These three sox have been the very most fun and this last one was just plain exciting !! ! !
Deletehugs
Please tell me you don't plan to wear shoes over those socks!? xo
ReplyDeleteYou are totally cracking me up, Evelyn.
DeleteIn fact - - - -
I looked at shoes today with those sox in mind.

These are so fun! I just love them!
