Socks, started on two circulars and then I realized I prefer knitting on dpns for socks. I love these. The yarn irritates me a bit, it is not evenly dyed, so there was a lot of waste yarn left over to make the stripes. She loves 'em. I never thought I would like knitting socks, but a friend recommended them as a good knitting project on the road and I read somewhere that wearing knit socks was like wearing special lingerie, even if nobody notices, it's so special. My daughter's socks however, are wonderfully noticeable. The trouble we have with these is that she loves to show them off and they are warm. So we have trouble finding something she can wear on a cold day that still shows them off AND DOESN'T COVER NOT EVEN ONE STITCH. This is a very big deal when you are three. I promise you. Thankfully we live in a temperate climate. These were finished in December, 2008.
