April Socks

So I'm keeping up so far. But I'm glad that I didn't make the 2 socks a month goal. I love knitting socks but I'm really aching to get something else on my needles. SSS seems to be creeping up with each pair I knit.


Pattern: Embossed Leaves by Mona Schmidt
Yarn: The Knittery 4ply Sock: Merino Cashmere (OLD)
color: Lakeside Flora
Needles: 2.25mm
Start: April 7
Finish: Not yet this is only sock 1

This yarn is thicker than what I'm use to. which makes knitting with it seem odd to me. But its super soft. Justin loves how the "stripes" spiral around. I'm not as fond of that. But its not horrible I guess. These colors knit up totally make me think of the Grinch.

I am liking the socks. I have a pair of the Embossed Leaves that Rachael made for me and they are comfy socks to wear.
Looking forward to your return to us soon. We all missed you this morning at YfB. Q took pics of the knitted food and such. I think they will be great.
