Fuzzy Feet, Side
I don't care what you think, I'm impressed that I'm able to take such a good side shot of my own leg. One must be flexible to do such things, I maintain.
Pattern: Fuzzy Feet, from Knitty.
Yarn: a discontinued wool (Shetland & Wool?) from Patons, which I had made into a shawl that I wore for a good three years before realizing it was way too itchy to be a shawl. Needless to say, in three years, I've long since lost the label (I was young and stupid and didn't save it). I used less than one skein, under 220 yards.
Needles: US #10.5 Clover bamboo DPNs
Time to complete: about four days. I did the first in two days. I cast on and completed the second over the course of a single viewing of "Fried Green Tomatoes." Felted them today while doing my laundry.
Mods: I didn't do the slip-stitches over the heel flap. It seemed pointless, since these never go into shoes.
I love this pattern. Fast, easy, and stash-bustingly fantastic.
Pictured drying on my feet with not one, but TWO pairs of socks.
