I just got another project off the needles! The second sock from my first sock attempt is complete. This is a great sock for newbies (Ravelry link) to learn the basics of sock knitting. Staci Perry, knitwear designer and knitting instructor for the Knitting Nest in Austin, has a great pattern for learning the basics and the pattern includes some very well done videos of each step.
Here is one of my lovely socks:
I love the color! The yarn is Cascade Yarns 220 Quatro Moondance. I still have have half a skein left so I might have to make some gloves to go with these. These socks are great for wearing around the house with slippers.
I start my first real sock this weekend. This time from the toe up!!
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI could probably make you some better looking ones! Ya'll probably need to keep you toes toasty up there in D town. Looks like there will be more snow tomorrow. What a weird Texas winter
