I'm trying

Wednesday, September 05, 2007

To prevent this blog from becoming the fetid pond of neglect and sorrow that it wants to be, I give you this.

It is called "A Sock and Hancock."

We match!

Marina Piccola socks, knit from my Koigu stash that before was in  Grumperina's stash.

And that's all the Exciting News in Knitting I have for now.

Oh I also started a sweater. A real sweater, with real meat too! But more on that later. We must pace ourselves. I will say that this fall, sweaters will be making a miraculous comeback into my knitting queue. This season, they're going to be the new socks. You heard it here first.

Man, between you and Grumperina, I'm missing Boston like crazy.

Lovely sock! I have my first two skeins of Koigu, and I think I've just found the perfect pattern after seeing your sock. I like the photo.

Perfect timing. I have been searching for the past few days for a new sock pattern to try and now I've found it. Yay for Kate Kilbert!

Love the socks. I'm going to check out that pattern. They do match the view. I love the John Hancock. Seems like it's a different building depending on the weather or the angle you view it from. And I love the way it reflects the surrounding architecture. I'll have to check back and see what you're decide to do for a sweater. Mmm. I love sweaters, too!

Great photo, lovely sock, excellent colorway :) Love it - and sweaters to come, very exciting! I am so in the mood for sweaters right now (and it's still in the 90's!)

I'm so glad to hear that sweaters are the new socks. I've been knitting socks for the past eight months and not much else, and all of the sudden all I want to knit is sweaters. Clearly I'm just following the fashion trends, right?

Beautiful sock! I don't know what the new trend is, though. Me, I just finished my first Charlotte's Web. Marching to my own drum, I guess.

Gorgeous socks! No, no, SOCKS are the new socks. Duh.

Oooh, pretty. I bought this pattern a while ago and have been thinking about making it soon. Your first one looks fabulous. But then, your socks always do. :)
