Look! A finished object!
Pattern: my own toe-up heel-flap sock pattern
Yarn: Patonyle
Comments: I started these while waiting to catch the plane to the UK on the first day of May, carried them all around Europe with me, finished the first sock just before flying home nearly two months later, then finished the second on Friday night. Probably one of the slowest sock knitting projects I’ve done, but only because I didn’t get much time to knit it while travelling.
I did a lazy rib cuff (k1p1 rib on one row, knit the next):
I so love this colour. Such a rich reddy red. I don’t know if Patonyle still comes in this colour, but if it does I’ll be buying more.
I’m messing about with ideas for the next pair of socks, but also cast on for a bigger project:
River Tweed, using Cleakheaton Country 8ply.
Well you did better than me! I did manage to get all but the toe done on one sock while in Key West, started the second sock sitting at the hospital with my brother and thought I’d knit over the weekend at his house…. not a stitch!
Probably a good sign you had a fun weekend, though!
