So to match the cardigan and hat I made for my co-worker’s newborn son, I made a pair of booties.

Just in time

Hypnosis sock
Just in time to start Camp Loopy, I finished the sock I was working on. Yes, singular sock, I still have to knit the other one. This might be the longest time I have ever spent making a single sock.


Hypnosis sock
The chart for this sock is 42 rows. I had to start and restart the sock a couple times, and once I got to the heel I almost started over once again. But I managed to be able to rip back a few rows and pick up again. If I would change one thing it would be the cuff. It’s in pattern and I should have used one size larger needles but it’s ok.

Slipping

Posted by mobarger on May-10-2011

I am slipping. I am not finding interest in knitting right now which is unusual.

But I have managed to push out a pair of socks. In the skein (and I wish I took a picture of it) the colors weren’t my cup of tea. But all knit up I think they look pretty good don’t you?

These are some funky cables aren’t they? I ended up breaking a cable needle in the process so I used an extra sock needle for the rest of the cables. I can never do cables without needles.

The funky cables are repeated from the heel down to the toe.
