Here are the Sockapalooza socks I knit for my Swedish pal this summer, modeled by her. They were knit from my handspun too, and were a lot of fun to make. I keep meaning to start a pair for myself.


Sadly, I think I end up giving away most of the stuff I knit before I can take a picture of it. That, and these days I spend more time at my spinning wheel than I do knitting.

Those look great! Where did you get the pattern for them? I recently learned how to make socks, but my heels look really crummy, yours look great!

I like Kitchener stitch too. Also, drat. I should just sell the crocheted squid I made out of acrylic to the indies!



Hey I made a squid too!


Also this Cthulu!

For the love of everything good and holy tell me you wrote down a pattern.

Well just the head, and its kind of in my brainless shorthand. I am kind of swamped, but I will try to get all of it written down this week.

I just finished a pair of socks. It was my first pair actually knitted on size 0 needles, instead of worsted weight on size 5 needles. I suspect there are more friggin sts in a pair of socks then there are in a sweater.



My next project is going to be a baby viking hat

Since babies grow so fast I don't want to use super expensive yarn, and I want to use something that can easily wash well and pick up baby drool. Any recommendations on type of yarn?
