Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas, everyone!!

I hope everyone is having an excellent Christmas! I've been busy knitting, but for the first time in a long time the only things I had to knit on Christmas Eve was stuff that I wanted to knit, not stuff that I had to knit for Christmas, lol.

I made another pair of Thujas with Patons Kroy in eclipse and coal for the heels and toes, Ravelry details here.

More Kroy socks, plain old vanilla in copper colors, details here.

I used up some leftover Briggs & Little Tuffy to make some ladies ankle socks, details here.

The oldest kid had big, wide feet. Size 14 EEEE, to be exact. He complains non-stop about is socks, and it's really hard to get him anything that actually fits him that he likes. He only likes ankle socks, so I made him a pair out of my leftover Serenity Sock Yarn in aquamarine, details here.

Don't eat too much turkey or ham!! Soon off to MIL's for Christmas dinner, first time in many years that I haven't had to do it!!

Happy knitting!!

PS (I got lots of Tuffy for Christmas to make work socks!)

Socks, Of Course!

More socks to post, though until my yarn order arrives I am pretty much out of sock yarn. Might have to actually knit something else!

A pair of Thujas made with Patons Kroy in Eclipse with Coal for heels and toes. Ravelry details here.

60 stitch Pink Sugar vanilla socks for a Christmas gift, Deborah Norville Serenity Sock Yarn, details here.

My Monday night knitting group meets at the local museum. They decorate big time for Christmas and put up many trees. They had a little tree they asked everyone to make decorations for, so I made some mini socks, of course, lol. Leftover socks yarns, the pattern is Mini Socks, details here.

Happy knitting!

Repetitive

A bit of a repetitive post, it's mostly socks with repeat colors. Got a really good deal on sock yarn, and there's a new store in town that sells all hand made stuff, and she is carrying my socks. Sold a couple of pairs, but I only had five pairs to start with and just dropped off more today. Got to build up the variety, lol, and I will also be taking in some of the heavy wool work socks and some felted slippers.

All vanilla socks to start, Deborah Norville Serenity Sock Yarn, links to Ravelry details on the color name, pink sugar...

...teal tease...

...spring fling...

...aquamarine...

Then I had a request from someone who had gotten felted slippers from me years ago to make three more ladies size large pairs. Made with Patons Classic Wool in mainly black, yellow, navy, and chestnut brown, with odds and ends of other colors used as well (they cut back on yardage years ago, sob's). I used to be able to knit a pair of mediums with two skeins, but now you need a contrast color or extra ball to make the cuff or you run out. The pattern is the old faithful, Felted Clogs, details here.
