On The Needles Today


I recently took a trip to Vail, (see previous post), and wanted to take along a project that was small and portable, so I chose a sock project. Small enough to fit in a little zippered bag, ready to pull out whenever I had the opportunity to knit. The sock pattern is half made up, in that I used a toe up sock pattern from Ravelry as a base, and then added my own rib and cable pattern. It's an easy pattern to remember, so I don't always have to go back to any pattern, just knit, knit, knit!

You may notice that the color of the yarn is similar to my Colorado Colors photos from the previous post. As it turns out, I bought this yarn on Ebay, (one of my first Ebay purchases) several weeks ago, long before I saw the willows in Vail. I guess I do really like the colorway of gold, brown, russet.

My socks are about 1/3 of the way done, so there will be more posts as the project approaches the finish line. Stay tuned.
