Change of travel plans for the weekend, it is cold and windy here and where we were going has new snow so anything not securely fastened is going to be blowing across the road so I am getting an On The Needles posted.I'm ready to turn the heel on the blue and grey socks. I started more clogs, the brown for son's birthday next month and the victorian red/pink for me. These have knit much faster than the pair I knit before Christmas, I'm not counting stitches every other row. I still have the bottom sole to knit then into the hot water.
Link for the clogs Fiber TrendsI finished the bunny hop footies with leftover yarn the short row heel has 60 rows so is almost a half circle and they do stay up unlike all my store bought footies that slide down in my shoe.
Also finished the navy 4x4 basket weave socks. Its going to be a great weekend to sit by the fire and knit then go to my sewing room for a while. Stay warm--Ann-- link to PatchworkTimes above.
Great socks -- those basketweave ones are very nice - love the texture. Stay warm! Knit lots!
ReplyDeleteBoth of your finishes are lovely. I printed off the short ones, but haven't tried any socks YET!. Your basketweave ones look absolutely warm and soft. I can just imagine how they feel on your feet. Nice job on both pairs.
ReplyDeleteLove your bunny socks. That's a great idea to make with the leftover yarn. Your basketweave socks are just beautiful, too.
ReplyDeleteLove all these socks, particulary like the blue pair. I need to get a pair going on the needles again. I use 20cm Addi circulars and really like knitting with them! I've never tried your method of two at a time but maybe I should one of these days.
