Did some outdoor knitting on Thursday. It was nice to get out in the sun even if my fingers got a little chilly. I am writing my weeks posts ahead of time due to our very busy week (it's school vacation up here). When I took this photo I had just reached the toe. I hope that by the time this posts I will have neared the end of the toe decreases .. I'll let you know.
Per last weeks request ::
The pattern is Susan B Anderson's : How I Make My Socks
and the yarn is : Supersocke
My next project will be another sock, a Christmas Stocking knit with this pattern. I am super excited to try something a little more challenging. I'm a little tired of stockinette stitch! I'm knitting the Christmas Stocking for my Christmas Prep KAL -- it'd be great if you joined me!
I have two prizes in mind for the KAL check back on Tuesday to see what they are!

Don't feel bad. My latest Year of Projects post made a liar out of me. I thought I would have the heels of both socks turned by this morning...I have one done but not the other. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteI haven't knit outside for weeks! Hope you had a good week and good going on the sock 😊
ReplyDeleteSometimes there's nothing I like better than a vanilla socks, and other times I want to expand my horizons and try some fancier sock patterns. Fortunately they're a small enough project that you can do whichever suits you at the time. Hopefully you're having a great holiday. See you next week!
ReplyDeleteKnitting action shots! Love it! Hopefully more good weather this week!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to sit outside the other day and knit a bit too, but the wind made it to difficult. So took a walk, then came back in to knit. Nice to get out for sure.
ReplyDeleteI've been doing socks too but not Susan's pattern but I have it. Do you like the pattern? Let me know before I make them! LOL! I've not tried changing colors but I like your stripes! Cute! Spring is a very busy time for me too! Take care and TTYL!
ReplyDeleteIt is self striping yarn, I love the pattern it's very straight forward, I use it for all my socks. These ones I just knit a little longer to fit my hubby.
DeleteI haven't been able to knit outside yet..the weather is fine..but the garden needs prep.. thanks for the info on the yarn and pattern and I hope you all have fun during your school break.
ReplyDeleteThe sock is looking great, and I love knitting outside as well. I'd be out there now if I didn't think that either my knitting or I would blow away!
ReplyDeleteIt's a sock knitting kind of week for me too. Maybe I should take my knitting outside for a change!
