I have finished another pair with Dye-anamics! yarn. They have the best yardage for the price too. 430 yards. I have enough yarn left over for a child's pair of socks and the colors are so beautiful.

Yarn Review

The 52 Pair Plunge Colorway is gorgeous and the sock feels a lot like STR heavyweight. I highly recommend it.

Hmmm

I am starting to feel the pressure. 52 *** Fifty-Two ### 52 pairs of socks. What was I thinking? I am on track, knitting on average a pair per week but, the patterns I am about to start are definitely going to take longer than a week to complete. I don't have any little feet to knit for, so no making the quick and small baby or kid socks. The Lime and Violet marathon ends this weekend and I have surpassed my 5 mile goal. I really feel good about that, 24 pairs of socks knit from Jan 15 to July 15, squee. Unfortunately the 52 Pair Plunge did not start until April, so only 15 of those 24 pairs count towards this goal.

I turned the heel on my second Blue Monkey sock and my 52 PP sock. I have about two inches left before I turn the heel on my Ocean Dreams sock. If I stay off of Ravelry I could finish all three pair by July 15th and hit the 6 mile mark. That would also give me three weeks to work on my Jigsaw, Pomatomus and Brigit socks.

Sounds like a plan - I need to clear the decks for the Sundara Yarn and Socks That Rocks Yarn I have coming. Double, extra loud squee.
