Posted by Julie in : Craftiness Is Next To Godliness , trackbackI have training for our new phone system in about ten minutes (yeah, we need training. Because apparently there’s something where they’re logged into the computers were on. Or something. It’s vaguely reminiscent of 1984.) But, in the meantime, I give you something cool to look at:
Pattern: Rockin’ Socks by Gail Marracci with modifications for a diabetic recipient
Yarn: Fleece Artist Sea Wool (wool and seacell)
Needles: Knit Picks Harmony DPNs, US Size 1 (for heels) and 2 (for rest of sock)
Size: Women’s size 8 1/2 or 9, I think. Bigger than my feet and Judy’s - she likes things loose on her feet.
Made For: Rick’s ma, Judy
Would I make this again? Not this pattern, no. Because I have a sneaking suspicion that the instructions for short row heels are off, and that’s the whole reason I bought this. But the yarn is lovely, if a bit unevenly spun at times, and I think it might bloom more after washing. I think she’s going to like them a lot.
