Socks, Socks, and More Socks

More progress on the socks and a new sock to boot!  Not only did I join my first KAL, I found and joined 2 more.  The burgandy crimple sock from last week is ready for clue #2 (hopefully will work on that this weekend).  The gold socks are for the Through the Loops Mystery Sock 2013.  I've never done a lace pattern like this but with slow knitting and counting out loud I'm getting it done.  The third KAL I've joined but haven't started it yet, Knitter's Brewing Co, Mystery Sock V - perhaps I've started too many?

I also made progress on the two other started socks, ready for the toe on the green/blue pair and the heel on the brown pair. 






Happy knitting!

    So many pretty socks! I'm partial to the yellow ones and I truly believe there is no such thing as too many sock projects -- have fun!

    I guess a KAL pushes you to try new patterns. I almost always use the same basic patterns, but it is fun to branch out once in awhile. I have a friend that just loves new sock patterns, but I am too scared to put that much time and effort into the unknown. Now that I have knit tons of socks though, I am starting to understand it all boils down to the same basic "formula". Cheers! Evelyn

    Very true - never would have tried these patterns withou the KAL. The last 6 pairs of socks I made were the Basic Ribbed pattern.
