December Socks


My Circe socks.  I love the twist; the ribbing on the foot actually starts on the gusset and continues around to the top of the foot.

The picture of the single sock catches the color better.

Once again my sock is part of the 2013 Cookie A sock club.  I really enjoy her socks.  They are very challenging and I have had to learn new techniques.

Another November pair!

The ribbing around the arch of the foot keeps them snug.

November Socks



I just finished my Stardust socks, pattern by Adrienne Fong.

I knit them using Knit Picks Stroll Fingering, Tranquil, on  two 2.25 mm circular needles.  The beading was done as I went along using Mill Hill 8/0 glass beads in the color Opal Seafoam.

The second picture shows the back of the sock with beading and an eye of partridge heel flap.

Spock Socks, a Cookie A pattern

July Socks are done!

This is the Spock Sock Pattern from the Cookie A Sock Club.  I made it with Sokkusa O yarn on two 2.25mm circular needles.  The colorway is Spock!

Instead of making a standard heel, I continued the rib pattern, doing knits instead of ktbl.

I should know by now that Cookie A patterns look better in solid or semi-solid colors. The self-striping yarn doesn’t look that great, but who could resist Spock Socks made with Spock Yarn!

Two for June

I finished 2 pairs of socks in June!

This first pair is Tulip Socks by Cookie A, knit in Hazel Knits Artisan sock, color Pink Ribbon.
The other pair is Petrosinella by Adrianne Fong.  The yarn is Socks That Rock lightweight in the color Hope Springs Eternal.

Both of these were sock club kits.  I'm trying to keep up with the 2 clubs I joined this year.  So far, so good :-)  Additional details can be found on my blog or my Ravelry project pages.
