OK, so, I am working on socks, you know I have never ever made them before. I am a relatively new knitter, only been doing so since December... BUT I will NOT give up. I am working on these socks HERE is the pattern. I am following it to the T, except I messed up & on the row where you switch from the cuff (kk,pp) I accidentally did a pp, kk. That's OK, it looks awesome! Usually a cuff pattern is k,p,k,p (knit, purl) all the way around, or kk, pp. So no biggie that I messed up. Good thing for me is this blog so that whenever I get to the other sock I will be able to look @ my blog & say "Ah, yes, that IS what I did :) Plus these are MY socks & an imperfection just means that they are home made.
Progress...
Mind you it is taking me sooooo long because I have had to rip this SOB out like 8 times, literally. BUT, I get it now, and I am on the leg part. That is just plain ole kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk, knitting :) for 7 inches, that is A LOT lol! I am doing these on size 2 DPN's, they are my lovely harmony wood set from knitpicks.com. These needles are my absolute favories. I am thinking awfully seriously of ordering their straights & circulars. BUT they are expensive. Maybe a birthday pressie? Or a anniversary pressie?
HAHA ok, that's be all on this topic now lol. I am going to work on this demon sock now, tend to sick babies, and contemplate deleting my FB..... or only using it to post blog links, what do you think?
