Finally Done (After Only A Year!)
I finished my Ma's -- Ma's Days socks last night at almost midnight. She didn't try them on today, so I don't know if they fit. Her feet are smaller than mine, so I tried to adjust them by guestimating. I've only ever knit socks for myself or women with the same size feet as me, men's socks, and kids socks.
I also had completed all the pieces to the sweater I started for the store about a year ago. This morning it looked like this.
Then it looked like this after supper.
Now it looks like this, all done. I can't get anything but crap pictures of this yarn. Must be the ragg effect not co-operating with the flash. It does have two cables running up the front and a cable up each sleeve, with saddle strips across the shoulders. Now I can work on the other sweater I started for the store, and more socks, of course!
I did win that Lorna's Laces on eBay that I showed in the last post. I also won this from the same seller, too. Shipping was the same for two or four skeins, so I may as well take advantage (good excuse to buy more, right?). I see cabley goodness happening with these ones.
Happy knitting!

Yay for finished mom's day socks :)
That LL looks great-- I always justify buying more when there's only one shipping price, too :)
Great sweater, and the LL is beautiful!
Hi from Austria! I love how your mom's day's socks turned out, such a great colorway!
And wow, the sweater is so gorgeous, great job with the knitting and certainly with the finishing chores as well - it looks fantastic!
The socks and sweater look great! And I love the yarn you got on eBay! Wonderful colours!!
Have a great day!
