A long with my Leap Year Blanket project I am working my way through my WiP's. Trying to be good and start nothing new unless its a gift. Picked up a pair of socks over the weekend that I started easily 2 years ago!!! The first sock was completed shortly after picking the yarn but the second sock has been sat on the needles looking pretty on my windowsill for months!! Determined to finish it before this weeks FO friday. Had to frog the heel flap as I must have been in a grump the last time I picked this project up. My tension was very very tight. All frogged and sorted now and finally on the home straight. Sock knitting really isnt for me lol
Have a look at the other fab blog posts at Tamis Amis WiP collections
great colour love that yarn, they for you ?
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your socks finished :-)
ReplyDeleteYour socks look great! The yarn is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love your socks! If its the heel flaps that just aren't doing it for you, you could always try and afterthought heel or a short row heel. :D
ReplyDeleteThey look brilliant :)
ReplyDeleteI'm usually bad about leaving WIPs setting about on needles waiting in vain to be finished. Good for you for wanting to finish your sock. You give us cast-on-holics hope.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried knitting socks on magic loop instead of dpns? Maybe you'd find it more enjoyable. Welcome back to WIPW!
ReplyDeleteAnother pair of yammy socks! Sigh, I really need to make me some. Looks great. By the way, that blanket you are working on is also very cool!
ReplyDeleteI guess you either love it or hate it as far as sock knitting goes. I think if I had to frog a heel flap that sock might still be sitting in the window sill. Good for you for getting them done!
