One Last Pair
I spoke too soon in yesterday's post. I have one last FO to show you for the year!
The stripes don't quite line up on these. I'd say they are fraternal rather than identical.
Pattern: Garter Rib Socks from Sensational Knitted Socks
Yarn: STR Midweight in Scottish Highlands I love this yarn. It's squishy and makes a nice thick fabric. I can't wait to try some of the lightweight I have.
Needles: One on KP size 3 dpn's. The other on size 2.5 Bryspun dpn's. I changed to the Bryspun because these socks went to Ireland with me and I didn't want to risk getting my needles confiscated. The funny thing is the KP #3 and the Bryspun #2.5 are the same size if you look at the millimeters. Weird, huh?
Date Started: 10/15
Date Finished: 12/31- Last FO of 2006!
And the skeins just keep on coming...
These three lovelies are courtesy of Sandra at I May Be Knitting A Ranch House. She was doing a little destash. I was doing some stash enhancement. The cosmos were aligned.
Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in Birches. This color is really cool. There's a little green interspersed with the black and brown.
Yarntini self striping in Vintage. I already have a skein of this. But with 2 I can make knee highs!
Yarntini self striping in 4-8-15-16-23-42 (inspired by Lost). I don't watch Lost but I saw some Jaywalkers in this color and they were adorable!!!!
Happy New Year!!!!

I love everything! Your socks made me gasp when I first opened your site - beautiful! I am so needing to try STR! And well, Yarntini - we are kindred spirits - and I want to think I have some of that Cherry Treehill in my own stash! Sock yarn Rocks!!!! Happy New Year!
Hi Nell,
I happen to have that same Vintage colorway of Yarntini! I loooove it so much. Now that I saw your Yarntini socks in Hope, I am sure that I am going to do my Yarntini socks in stockinette stitch. The stripes look so great in that smooth stitch. Your socks are wonderful, pure fun.
Happy New Year!
