Sock Update

I have lots to talk about but not much time to do it so I’m going to limit this post to my Summer of Socks 2007 progress. There is some, though not nearly what I had hoped to have by this point.

I finished one pair. They were for my 6 year old son who will be passing me in shoe size(and my feet are not small) within a couple years.

Please notice the temporary tattoo on his arm. He was quite adamant that it needed to be visible.

I have been struggling with the Regia Bamboo Color yarn that I got back in December for months now. After a very bad start on needles that were much too small I began again with basic stockinette and reasonable needles. I finished the first one:

I have my first Fuzzy Feet finished but not felted

And last, but not least, my Toe up version of the Charade sock.

That is all for now.
