All Christmas presents in the WIP list this week-I do have an FO for tomorrow that is for me, me, me :)
Bigfoot Socks
Now at a more correct foot length! Making some good progress on the leg-thinking cuff time is rapidly approaching. Hoping that sock number 2 will go a little more quickly…not ripping back almost 40 rows should help a lot :)
Hermione's Hat
Just picked up a skein of Malabrigo in Emerald to make one for me after Christmas knitting is done. I really like how this is looking and hope the recipient likes it as well!
Something new! I'm using a cable pattern from the second Vogue Stitchionary called the Garlic Braid and the basic math for toe-up socks from Laura"s Socks on a Plane pattern. These are for my grandma and I am so totally enjoying them. The yarn is Sweet Georgia Tough Love Sock in Silver and it is absolutely delicious :)
Although a day late, still linking up with Ginny and the rest of the crew! Happy Thursday!
I love the detail and texture of the stitches in the patterns you've chosen. And um yeah, that's a big @ss sock, ha!
ReplyDeleteHappy Knitting!
Thank you! I'm thinking I might have to do the Vampire Sock in a deep red next…love it so much!
