"To do" sock list

Who doesn't love a list? I'm getting so involved in my year of the sock, that I have created my very own list of sock projects for February. No.1 Finish these very special tiny socks for a special little man. No. 2 Finish these socks that I started in 2010 No. 3 And start these overly ambitious patterned socks that I'm bound to make a total mess of. Anyhow watch this space   Posted with Blogsy

Year of the sock January

The first month in the year of the sock has pretty much been dedicated to my Wendy Happy in Fjord. I do love the yarn which is mostly bamboo, but they seriously did take me forever. These are my first patterned socks and although it was a pretty simple alternating 2x2 rib, I did get in a complete muddle. Fortunately the pattern is quite forgiving. I started these socks in April 2014 so it is quite an achievement. .... and now on to the next unfinished pair.   Posted with Blogsy

2015 - Year of the sock

  I realise I'm a little late but Happy New Year blogosphere anyhow. So far I've liked 2015, although I was rather fond of 2014. I know for a lot of friends and family, 2014 was challenging and they were glad to move on so to them especially I wish them all the best for the new year. Along the with usual resolutions (loose weight, get fit, be the best me ever...) my number one wish for this year is to finish projects. There are a whole stack of unfinished projects lurking in the cupboards and I'm starting with socks. I've already finished one pair (there was just a heel and a foot of the second sock left) and now I'm on to a more challenging pair that I started last April.     Posted with Blogsy
