Spin A Yarn for Ewe

I just finished yesterday my second pair of socks. I used some Mountain Colors Bearfoot that had been started as socks but never finished and since I couldn't remember what pattern they were and the fact that they were too tight I frogged them. I now have Burning Rings Of Fire Socks.





I love how they look and they were really fun to knit. I think I might just make them again with a few changes. One is I would like them a slight bit taller. Bearfoot does not have a ton of yardage so this was about all I could get out of it, in fact I only had a couple of yards left. Two is I like how the Eye of Partridge heel looks so I would switch to that instead.

I have started another pair of socks. Actually I have started them twice now as the first attempt was too tight. I only knit about 1.5" of the cuff and could barely slip them over my heel so I have jumped up one needle size and I hope that works. Otherwise I will switch yarns as I think a size 2 needle is about as big as I want to go with this yarn.

I am also on my last Boob Hat. It is getting harder to make myself work on them but now that I only have 9 days I guess I have too. Hard to believe that in only 9 days I will be walking 60 miles but after all this training I am ready.
