Diamond Chain Toe Up Socks




This is my last pair of socks. I really like them. They are toe up socks, and my pattern can be found here
I really enjoyed making these socks and want to make another pair of them.
The yarn is Knitpicks Bare that I dyed with kool aid.

I've been bad about keeping up with my blog. There just isn't enuff hours to the day!

Mallow Socks


I can't believe it's been almost 2 months since I blogged. I've been doing a lot during that time, but just didn't get a chance to show you all. :) For one thing, I've posted some of my handspun yarns, and also some of my cards on my Etsy story. The address to it is: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7071174 Susan made me a banner and an avatar. *THANKS SUSAN*. :)

I've been doing some knitting, but my thumbs have been bothering me so have retrained myself to knit differently, and the new way is pretty slow compared to my old way of knitting. The above socks are the 'Mallow Socks', and the pattern is by Wendy Johnson. You can find the pattern here: http://media.wendyknits.net/media/MallowSocks.pdf I'm happy with these socks. :)

I am currently working on another sock pattern of my own and once I have the socks completed I will post pictures along with the pattern. :)
