Purled Ladder Socks
Monday, January 23, 2006
2 socks on 2 circulars
This sock is a 4 stitch pattern on page 38 called Purled Ladder.
I was able to get the 2 socks in profile. but I had to move them around using double points. Yes, I cheated! Im working on how to do it without cheating but it may take me some time! Oh! the yarn is Wool Ease. I cast on 48 sts. for size 7 1/2 shoe. Liz C.

Moving Right Along
I've finished the heel and am starting the decreases. I hope to finish it this week and start the next one next week.

Different Pattern for Fortissima
Well, I got about 4" of the Chevron pattern done and hated it in the Fortissima. So I ripped it and did it in the Textured Rib instead. I've started the second sock and hope to be wearing them by the end of the week. The pattern doesn't show in the picture but it is quite nice and very stretchy.
I also started Fan Lace in some Cherry Tree Hill yarn I got for Christmas. It's a potluck color that looks to be a cross between Spring Frost and Sarengeti. It's very lovely too. I will post a picture of that one when I'm further along. I have so many socks on the needles right now, I really must finish them before I start more. Right?

Baby Cable Rib
I started these out following the instructions on page 34 (Honey Merino Style for knitpicks, CO 48 sts). After numerous reknits for various reasons, I decided to leave off the plain rib at the knit. I'm fairly short and thought it wouldn't look that good. I'm ready to turn the heel.

Casting On!!
Hi! I got this wonderful book for Christmas and was happy to find this KAL. I've cast on the Chevron pattern on page 73 using Fortissima Mexico 9076. I don't have enough of the leg done yet to see the full effect of this pattern on the yarn, but I'm looking forward to seeing those zig-zags. I also cast on the Twin Rib pattern for a CIC sock in some Peruvian Wool from elann.com. I don't have a blog, but enjoy going to them to read and see what everyone is doing. I don't know that my life is interesting enough to blog about it. Happy Knitting!!
