Socktober

So Socktober is almost over and I have finished my socks!

TTL Mystery Sock

They are Yarn Chef Mulligatawny in Orange Sherbert and I knit them on size 2.5mm needles. I guess this translates to a 1.5 in US sizes. Who knew there were so many different 1's and 2's. Guess I usually use 4's for lace and they only seem to come in one size. I really love them and they fit perfect. I will definitely be knitting another pair of socks soon. In fact I just might already have a pair going.

Socks!

Just waiting for their toes.

Don't look too closely at the toes. Those are "in training" feet. Only 3 more weeks until the big walk.

Stole and Socks

It is finally DONE! Done knitting, done blocking and now photographed, the SotS3. Not the best shots since the wind is blowing here but you get the idea.

This shot is a better one of the color. It is a really light green with greys in it. I love the color but I am bummed the beads only show up in person. They are almost an exact match to the yarn which is nice for the subtle sparkle not so good for the camera.

I am also almost done with sock 2 of the Mystery Sock KAL. I have 6 more repeats to do on the second one and the next clue comes out tonight so I might have it done in time or at least close.

Gina asked about the yarn. It is Yarn Chef Mulligatawny in Orange Sherbert. It only has subtle color differences which I thought would be good with the pattern.

I also am almost done with the stealth project and I have started Boob Hat number 3. Once the stealth project is done then I can just concentrate on the socks and the hats. Much less scattered for me as I have been feeling a little crazy with all the projects going.
