Rustic Socks Update

More about those Rustic Socks I mentioned yesterday.



More Sensational Knitted Socks by Charlene Schurch
Uneven Ribbing is a 4 stitch repeat.
Using Rustic Wool from the Queensland collection. I blogged about these socks here and here and here.
I don't like the short row heel. Ick. I'll have to use some more research. Perhaps another resource would help with my toe-up socks. I move to top-down on a size 4 needle. I'm using the (St) Ann Budd Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns as my guide.
knitSB footies on a size 2 using Twisted Sisters Jazz. I'm using the sock cal app for the iPhone mentioned in this blog post.  I'll keep you updated on how it goes.

While at Monticello, I snapped this photo of the life size Thomas Jefferson statue. Can you spot the knitting?

Vanilla Jazz Socks Finished!

Yes! They are ready to be worn!
Vlogged about them here and here.
Restarted them here.
Enjoyed the heel here.

This is the the skein that really caught my attention.

I thought the colors were amazing. I had them on hold for 6 months at the LYS and then put the skeins back on the shelf for another 6 months before I bought them. This yarn really caught my attention.

Jazz Vanilla Socks just got "jazzier"

I used Pumpkin Spice to finish the toes on my Jazz Vanilla Socks.  Here's a picture of this the yarn that will eventually become short socks for knitSB.
