Well, I finished DH's socks.
Well, I finished DH's socks. They only took 3 months or so. :)
And so then I started my cloverleaf socks, the first ones from the six sox knitalong. The second pair should be started on August 1. Hahahahahaha. :)
Anyway, I started the first ones, and I'm using the hand dyed sock yarn I got off eBay a week or two ago. Nice yarn :) I think this pattern would be better in a plain colourway, though. But I didn't have any plain sock yarn, and seeing as I have enough sock yarn on hand for 20 pairs, I didn't think I'd better order anymore ;)
I'm liking the pattern, but I changed it a little according to some notes in the knitalong. I don't have skinny calves, so I added a few stitches. It's a simple 6 row repeat.
This is the only knitting I've done. I'm still peeved at my gauge isseues, so I've not had the nerve to pick up any knitting where gauge really matters. ;)
