BeadKnitter Patterns: Ribes Jumeaux: Happy New Year! I have a gift. A new sock pattern! I designed these for my son-in-law. They were his 2012 Christmas present. After knitting...

Happy feet

The co-worker I gave the last pair of socks to snapped a shot of her happy feet wearing the socks. I'm seriously thinking of making another pair of socks for her so she and her daughter don't have to fight over the one pair.

Sock envy

~ snerkle ~

The co-worker reported this morning she was able to wear her warm wooly socks for about an hour before her daughter noticed them and immediately took possession of them.

It's nice to know my socks are so well loved.

Crusoe from knitty.com

I finished another pair of socks today. This pair was intended for me but the pattern wound up being so much tighter than I expected that the socks are actually too tight for my comfort. The pattern is Cursoe from knitty.com and they have found a good home with a co-worker who very graciously volunteered to take the socks off my hands.




The co-worker can't wait to get the socks home. The weatherman predicted some really cold overnight temperatures and she's looking forward to the socks keeping her feet nice and toasty.

Watch out for the snakes!

At last, the snake scale socks from Six Sox Knitalong are done. Don't tell her, but they are for the Best Friend for Christmas along with the scarf. I hope they fit.

The difference between day and night

I decided to take a break from knitting to snap a shot of the socks I'm working on. Out of curiosity, I took one picture with the "Auto" flash . . .


. . . and one with the "Night time" flash . . .


. . . The flash makes the difference between blue and purple which is the color the socks are.

These socks are based on a pattern being worked up on the Six Sox Knitalong group on Yahoo!

Slippers

OK, well, there's only one so far, but it will be a pair of slippers soon.

I guess technically this is really the first sock I've knitted even though it is supposed to be a slipper. This is also for the Prodigal Son. It is from a pattern Karen graciously sent me. The heel is worked differently on this pattern than it is on the purple socks I'm making. Both of the ways are really easy once you understand what you're supposed to do, but I think I like this one better.
