Today's the day Liz and I start our little knit-along. We both fell in love with these socks when they appeared in the latest Knitty.
I've chosen a really subtle colourway for these as I think anything too wild will lose the effect of the pattern. The yarn is Fleece Artist Merino Sock yarn and the colour is 'Rose'. I'm using 2.5mm Brittany 5" dpns as my weapons of choice.
These socks start with a figure of 8 cast on (they are knitted toe up) which I have never done before, but wasn't too hard.
I'm now working on the increases and should hopefully get to do at least one pattern repeat this evening.
PS Does anyone have any idea why there are so many fish sites cropping up in my computer's History???
