Falling in Love Socks
Started 2/10/07, completed 3/6/07, but I wasn't working very much on them. The first sock went fast. I dawdled on the second. Pattern here. The yarn is from KnitPicks, and was dyed specially for me by my awesome Secret Pal, Rachel. The stripes turned out perfectly! |

My Construction Barrier Socks
Made from Crown Mountain Sock Hop "Big Yellow Taxi" using a highly modified Jaywalker pattern. I spun the yarn. I did four 15 stitch panels of the chevron on US 2 needles with yarn that was a little too thick for US 1's. I was learning how to spin the Sock Hop yarn, and dd it too thick, but I love, love, love my socks as they're supple, strong, soft, and springy. |

I am new to Colourlovers and can not figure out how to put a palette and/or photo in this comment, despite being invited to do so above. Sigh...
