Back in January, my friend and fellow fiber lover, gifted me some knitting funds. As you can see, I've been sitting on them for a while now. After knitting my first pair of socks out of the Cherry Tree Hill Potluck yarn, I knew I'd found a very special sock yarn. Having experimented and been frustrated by trying to match patterns on self-patterning yarn, I had been keeping an eye out for some solid yarn that I might be able to venture into some of the pretty stitch patterns in Sensational Knitted Socks and Vintage Socks.
In the meantime, I have finished the first sock of the Cherry Tree Hill African Grey yarn. I cast on a began the ribbing for the cuff just this morning. I was beginning to get a little worried. Several days ago I finished the first sock and I was afraid I was coming down with a case of "second sock syndrome."
Toodles.
