Due to the unfortunate circumstances of a funeral I had a three day weekend back in my hometown. Just Jellybean and I made the trip but Aunty, Grandma, and Grandpa were there waiting. I took full advantage of the free babysitting and snagged as much sleep and knitting time as possible. My goal was to wrap up my Neon Vanilla Socks. I only needed the leg, cuff, and afterthought heel to be done…
I got sooo close. Like justan inch of ribbing and the bind off left. I’m just itching to get these done to turn in for #dcspigskinparty2015 points! I guess they shall be done soon enough and I’m not going to look the gift horse in the mouth for the extra knitting time.
I snuck in a couple extra stitches on sock #2 to see if that eased the snugness I had in #1. And to hedge my bets I sneakily had my sister try these on to see if they fit her. They did…..so these might be destined for the Christmas tree…
Happy Knitting!
I love how they are mismatched they complement each other perfectly
Sorry about the reason for your few days away. Cute socks though. I fancy trying some toe-up socks – can you share which pattern you use?
I have cobbled my own recipe together using various techniques that fit my foot. But my first toe up pattern was this: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sport-weight-toe-up-socks-with-gusset-heel
So pretty!!!!! I need this yarn. Someday..
Sorry to hear about the funeral. Trust you are all well?
Love the socks, and so close. I am sure they are as good as done by now. Take care. 🙂
