First finished project in 2009

I finished my toe up socks last night. I'm so excited.


They were hardly off the needles before my daughter had them on her feet. I did good to get her to slow down and let me take this picture. LOL. She loved them. I kind of had a love/hate relationship with them. But they won't be my last pair of toe ups. My only wish is that I had done both at the same time.

Details:
2 hanks of Knit Picks Memories in Carnival (from stash)
US 2 needles (Knit Picks Options, 2 circulars)
Pattern: Lifestyle Toe Up Socks - No Swatch Needed by Charisa Martin Cairn
Short Row heel

Blessed be

Quickie

Being under the weather always has a sweet side. That sweet side for me is that I have more time to knit. (I bet you all feel the same way too.) Anyway, I haven't had much of a chance to work on my Monkey Socks so that was my project to start with. Throughout the day I worked on everything that I have on the needles but these socks have my attention. Here is a picture of them. This was take the other day, but I wanted to share with you how they are looking with the Knit Picks Felici.



There are 4 of the lace rounds finished in the picture but I've finished the 5th round and I'm starting on the heel.

So it's back to knitting, letting the Day Quill work and sitting in my knitting chair.

Blessed be
