FO Friday

Hello Knitters.
 I have finished 2 projects over the past few weeks. Below is the first project. These socks were made with cotton yarn in four different colorways. I did not follow a pattern, just made plain socks. I randomly made the stripes. Weaving in all the ends was a bit tedious however getting a one of a kind pair of socks made it worth the work.

 I love how the socks match ( I am a bit OCD about matching) but they are different. The colors were perfect for spring weather! One set back, I had a tighter gauge for the second sock. However, I think with use they will loosen up. 


 Second project off the needles is the Kalajoki socks. I love this yarn as well. The colors are so bold. I also love the twist of the yarn and the feel. High twist yarn is my favorite but this yarn has such a nice look once knitted up. Very pretty and fun! Two more pairs for the sock drawer.
My son really wants another pair of socks. So I told him to try knitting.....
Enjoy your weekend! Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Great socks and yarn, love self striping. In answer to your question, the self striping that I'm using is Twisted Limone.
