Pair 47

Pair 47 is a pair of baby socks in Bernat Softee Baby Rock A Bye Baby colorway. I made these to go with the Baby Surprise Jacket I knit for Jorge's son. They were extremely quick, about 3 hours total.

WIP 04/13/09

One down another to go. This pair of socks has been a nice break from my fair isle projects. Working with just one yarn goes so quickly, and not having a chart to read is even faster. I am making these in a smaller size. I am hoping they will fit my Mom a little better. She has tiny ankles and her Monkey socks fall down. I cast on only 48 stitches for this pair.

Dexter Season 2

I turned the heel on the Hot Socks Sock while watching season two of Dexter. I should be able to finish the foot tonight.

Frogged and Cast On

I frogged the Rockin Sock Club Leafling socks. It just does not make sense to try to force myself to knit those. I am just not excited about them. I have too much knitting to do and so little time. I cannot waste it on projects I don't really want to do. This is primarily the reason I did not join any of the clubs this year. I have not knit one single club project from the Rocking Sock Club or the Year of Lace Club. I liked the lace shawl patterns and yarns but never knit any of them. I liked a couple of the sock patterns and loved almost all of the yarn, but never knit any of them. I am focusing on what I have on hand to come up with knitting projects now. Well, mostly - I did buy some Sweater, Scarf and Wrap kits from the Starmore Virtual Yarn store. Details on my home page.

I cast on a pair of Four Seasons Hot Socks in Jewel Tones. It is a self striping sock yarn from Germany, and there is no other project it is suitable for so I am going to knit some stockinette socks. I need to move that number closer to 52 for gosh sakes, I have been stuck on 45 pairs for far too long.
