Kites Sock


The pink sock in the previous post has been set aside. It's hibernating. I apparently need some more sock-knitting experience before I continuing working on that one.

So, the above picture shows my current sock project. It's called Kites because that's what the stitch pattern will look like when it's done. Because of the yarn being black, it's difficult to see the pattern emerging yet. I'm at about 2".

Well, that's all for now because I came to the computer to create a spreadsheet for homework. I better get back to it.

Socks


Here is the pair of socks I finished yesterday. The name of the pattern is Sugar Maple from the book 2-at-a-time socks by Melissa Morgan-Oakes. I did not knit them two at a time, though, as I have discovered that I do not suffer from SSS (second sock syndrome). I'm sorta weird that way. Instead of being for me, they ended up being for L's birthday, which is today, because she admired them more than once while I was knitting them. That's my story.

Now, that I've got those socks finished, and after I do some homework which has been neglected, I will continue on the Pink Ribbon socks, pictured below. I'm anxious to have new pair of hand-knit socks for myself.
