Socks for Mom (Pair #9)

SFS (Pairs #6-8)

Three more pair for SFS – the loden were team knit, with my friend Maria knitting the legs on her CSM and me knitting the feet – the Lang Jawoll was hand knit by me.

Baby socks (Pair #5)

**Made with donated baby yarn from and for PNCWA**

How cute are these socks? Love them – my first knitted baby socks – way cuter than crocheted baby socks.

Socks for Mom (Pair #4)

**Knit Picks Felici Clay**

These were made for Mom for Christmas – she loved them, of course. The first picture is more true to the color. The second picture was taken at night on Christmas Eve so the colors are not quite right – but Mom’s feet look happy, don’t they?

SFS (Pair #3)

**Regia 52 (sent off to be dyed olive drab)**
*Pair #2 for SFS*

This pair was team knit, with my friend Maria knitting the legs on her CSM and me knitting the feet.

SFS (Pair #2)

Very cold today – yesterday too – below zero with 30 below wind chill – school was closed yesterday and again today. I don’t really care. My work carried on. Finished my first pair of socks for Socks for Soldiers today. It took 12 1/2 hours for me to make one sock. OH MY GOD!!! The first one took a long time so I timed the second one. Maybe I shouldn’t have – that’s kinda sad. But………the cuff is 12 inches so that’s a lot of sock – and……..I’m new at this. I have only made three other socks and I just started making socks in December (2006). So, I’ll cut myself some slack. Now onto learning how to knit socks on circular. That’s my project for this afternoon – to start to learn at least.

Socks for Mom (Pair #1)

This is my first pair of socks. I learned to knit in November, 2006, and these socks were completed in December, 2006. They are Red Heart worsted – OH MY. Yes, I said worsted – that was before I learned the joy of knitting socks with fingering weight wool. These socks belong to Mom – she fell in love with them and I happily handed them off to her.
