Socks again?


I am in the middle of trying to get the dress for our granddaughter done, by Friday. What did I do today, when I got home? I started knitting a sock. Ignoring the guilt producing looks from the holes of the pink dress. The dress has lots of holes, it's a shell pattern, so there should be holes, and all those holes are full of "the look", what the heck are you doing? FINISH ME FIRST, are you stoooopid, you don't have too much time left. Put that sock away, right now.

Fortunately I had to cook dinner, so I wasn't able to start on the Pink Thing immediately.

The sock? It is in "Creative Knitting" magazine, November 2005 issue. Page 68. The socks on the magazine were made using Lion Brand yarns. Well, do you think that my Michaels would have those yarns...nope. So, I went to Lewiscraft, got Paton's Kroy Socks in Jacquards, Paton's Decor in Aran and Claret. I am loving the combo. I have knitted 20 rows already...sssshhhh, don't tell the Pink Thing.

The picture is of the Lion Brand Yarn made socks.

I promise not to post anything else before I have the PT done.
