When I don’t feel very well, easy knitting is the only knitting that I can do. So I have a new pair of socks! 🙂
My own pattern in Yarn Love Elizabeth Bennet Romance with Knit Picks Stroll Tonal Sock Eggplant toes. Ravelry Project Page here
This is my super easy made up sock pattern. I can just churn out socks mindlessly following my little formula (written out on the Rav project page if you’re curious).
This yarn comes in 50 gram skeins, but I like the contrasting toes, so I don’t mind running out of colorway before the end of the sock.
I have already started the next pair. I can work on it in the evenings when I am so exhausted that all I can do is stockinette in endless circles. Plus, we are watching the Lord of the Rings Trilogy this week (it takes us six days with the extended version!) and I need something to keep my hands busy while the good guys slaughter orcs!
I see a sweet tomato heel! I’m working on my first pair with the sweet tomato heel right now! Love them!
I’m doing a swirly sort of toe in 6 sections (also from Cat Bordhi) and the sweet tomato heel on a plain stockinette sock. I’m in the same knitting boat right now….must be easy… must be portable…must not require concentration or brain power 🙂 I just sit on the couch…watching tv…knit, knit, knit.
After all these years, I’ve finally found my love for socks!
