Notes

2/16 FINALLLLLLLLY DONE!!! Only took just over 2 years……

2/4 Sock one done. Booyah.

Cast on for sock #2 and knit on it a tad during the Superbowl. Movin’ along…movin’ along…

2/1/13 Finally picked these up again! Determined to knock these out of the park ASAP!

Currently decreasing for the toe. I love me some DPNs, but holy moly the magic circle method is soooooooo much bettter!!!!

7/4/12 switched over to a super long circular needle to get them ready for magic loop awesomeness!

2/2 Tried partial sock on - awesome.

1/30 Heel turned and working on gusset…I have to say, this is my favorite part about making socks!

1/29 Moving along super fast! Come on parmesaner! I’m catching up with youuuuuu!!!!! Hoping to get the heel turned this weekend. =D

1/23 Got inspired to make another pair of socks with actual sock yarn. I love the colors of the yarn and I think this basic ribbed pattern will let the yarn shine and not compete with a super complex pattern (I don’t like that so much - not that I’ve made a complex pair of socks yet - I’m just sayin’).
