Socks, Socks, and more Socks!

So I finished Angela's socks, they're a little small but I'm hoping they will stretch. Can you believe I used less than a skein of sock yarn on them? She's got tiny feet!

I found a skein of KnitPicks sock yarn and knit myself a sock. Just one sock. I hope I have another skein somewhere...

Angela's birthday is soon, Jan. 27, so I'm knotting another pair of socks for her. They will fit perfectly this time! Her party is on Feb 6, so I've got some more time.

Finished!!!

I finally finished the sock! It took me about 5 weeks to finish. The yarn is pretty so that wasn't my issue. So what do I do as soon as the needles are free? Yupp, that's right I started another sock.

Second Sock Syndrome

I have become a victim of the cursed second sock syndrome. I finished the first over 6 weeks ago and started the second immediately. Unfortunately, they are for my friend Angela and she's been waiting patiently for them. She's got the smallest feet ever and I'm hoping to finish them in time for youth group on Sunday.

I think this is a poor excuse for a first entry, but I'm using my iPod touch. So, I hope this publishs.

I will be using this blog to get my designs out there for others to use, but I also will be using it to post my writings.

Happy new years'!
