My toe-up socks are coming along. I guess I forgot to post my progress last Friday. A couple of weeks ago I had only one toe completed. Before I got too far on the foot section, I started the second sock toe and worked it to the same length as the first toe. Then I loaded both socks starts on a pair of double pointed circular needles. I really like doing both socks at once.
When I got to the heels, I used double pointed straight needles to work each heel separately. After both heels were done, I reloaded the live stitches back onto my circular needles. For the leg I'm doing K2, P2 ribbing.
It's been a busy week here at the lake. We are cleaning, storing and packing in preparation for winter. Soon I will be back at home. Even though I love it here, I miss my nice quilting table and machine. I'm looking forward to doing the quilting on the Indian Star quilt I'm making for a friend.
Looks great love the color

Love the color of your yarn - your socks are looking great.
ReplyDeleteWhen I do MagicLoop socks I always end up doing the heels on DPNs too. It just seems to work better for me.
ReplyDeleteHi Diane,
ReplyDeleteGreat socks in a beautiful color. What's the yarn? I am always impressed by toe-up socks. That cast on befuddles me everytime. Where in the PNW are you? I live there too!
