Friday Yarn

I have wound one of my Malibrigo sock yarn on a dowel I'm using as a Nostepinne. I found the directions online that shows how to do this. I found it quite interesting. It does take longer to wind the yarn this way than onto a ball winder. The other two photos are of purple yarn that my daughter requested. The middle photo is Cascade 220, worsted weight. The top photo is Cascade yarn Baby Alpace also in the color purple. The baby alpaca is very soft and I think my daughter will enjoy working with it.

Zig Zag socks

I came across this pattern while searching for new sock patterns. Although it looks complicated it is very easy to follow. The pattern can be found at the following link

Mystery CAL

I joined the mystery CAL at The Tempe Yarn & fiber shop in Tempe.I have completed clues 1 & 2. This is my first CAL and I'm really enjoying getting together with the other ladies at the shop to crochet, knit and chat.

Finally a post

I knitted these socks for my daughter who attends TA&M University. (Texas Aggie) I had wanted to knit her something in the school colors so I came up with these.

I'm finally getting the hang of posting stuff to this blog. I just keep trying and eventually I get it right.

Sock Wars III

I meant to say in my previous post that my Assassin and I chose very similar colors for the socks in the war.
