Turkey Tracks: More Socks

More Socks

When I first started making socks, I bought a fair amount of sock yarn at various sales around and about Maine.

So, I’m systematically working away at…making socks.  Which isn’t a hardship because I’m clearly obsessed with making them…

OK, I took a break this summer and made a sweater that I’m sewing together now, so I’m sure you’ll see it here soon.

Anyway, here’s the current pair of socks “in progress.”

But, aren’t they pretty?  They are a Kaffe Fasset yarn that makes the funky colorful designs.

I’m looking forward to making more of Cookie A’s intricate patterns, but…not until I use up the yarn I already have.  Cookie A’s designs wouldn’t show up well with a yarn like this one.

As I write, on the second sock I’m past the heel turn and well into working down the stitches on the gusset.  On to the toe!
