I actually finished the Cotton Rib Socks on Thursday.
(That would be Baru's muzzle getting in my way.)
Having finished Nell on Wednesday, this meant that I was all caught up on all my WIPS.
I had nothing on the needles.
It was making me feel pretty twitchy.
I was in that state for about 24 hours, since I couldn't cast on for a new project until after work Friday.
To Recap
These are made of Schoeller+Stahl Sockina Cotton. Took about 1/2 a skein for my little feet, but I haven't weighed it to be sure.
(You can actually see parts of both dog's faces, in case you think he looks strange. It's Baru's eye and Samson's nose.)
I used a US1 needle.
I worked the leg and instep/top of foot entirely in 2x2 rib in an attempt to combat the tendency of cotton socks to sag.
I worked a princess sole and kept all those stitches on one needle to avoid creating a ladder on the bottom of the foot, as happened on my New Year's Socks.
I am cracking up! Those puppies cannot stay away from you!! LOL. :)
ReplyDeleteOH - Love the socks!
