Super warm wool socks that I knit! Pattern info blogged at: technoplastique.squarespace.com/journal/2011/2/12/fuzzy-w...
One ball Cascade 220 in a gray heather color, one ball Lion Wool in a colorway called Majestic Mountain. These oddballs from my stash look like they should be able to work together somehow, but how? Definitely not enough contrast for a Fair Isle pattern or most slip-stitch mosaic patterns. Maybe something tweedy. Only more swatching will tell.
With a 30 second exposure at -17 Celsius, I only did two takes. Looking forward to going out and playing some more, on a warmer night!
I've been giving the owl a lot of thought... I had to simplify the eyes a bit and I wanted to figure out a way of making him in one piece.
This is the first pair of socks I ever made. It was with Scheepjes Invicta Extra on 2.75mm needles. I used the Socks a la Carte pattern book as a guide, then altered the pattern to fit Jabin. Each sock took me a week of fairly consistent work to make! I used a Dutch heel. I am fairly happy with it, but there ended up being quite a little hole on one side of the gusset, which seemed to be caused by the slip-stitch pattern of the heel. I am going to have to figure out how to fix that.
He loves 'em, though! I hope they last!
68 yards and 4.2 whopping oz of crazy handspun goodness. A huge and chunky yarn! There is wool, bamboo, mohair and tons of bling and glitz. This was spun from an awesome "oh hell" batt from the talented HollyEQQ!
