WIP: Socks Go On An Adventure!

IMG_1011

So although I haven't been blogging much lately, there has been a large amount of knitting happening.  Not only that, it's sock knitting!  I had a skein of Madtosh sock in the colorway Rhubarb that was sitting around for, oh, you know, like two years.  And that's not even deep stash.  Geez.  Anyhow, I decided to cast on for a pair of 64-stitch stockinette socks, the same way I did with the Home Socks.

And today, Finished Sock and Second Sock went on an adventure!  (My other WIP socks seriously hate Finished Sock for having a Second Sock already.  They wonder why she is more special than they are.)  They came with me to the bus stop on my way to work (above).

And why yes, I am knitting them on my fabulous Signature 2.5 mm DPNs, a graduation gift from my friend Sparkle.  They are sort of the best needles ever.

Then Finished Sock got tired of laggy old Second Sock, and went for an adventure on her own.

(This one's for you guys, Ethan and Ondrea.)

And finally, she was tired, and took a nap on my feet.  Good thing she likes them, because they're going to be spending a lot of quality time together, very soon.
