Even though I've been focusing mainly on making stitch markers this past week, I was able to get decently far on my Monkeys. I've gotten through four repeats on both socks! I'm still SO in love with this yarn: Dream in Color Smooshy with Cashmere in Flashy Mint.
Yup, defintely still in love.
I also wound up some new stripey yarn. Purple, pink and black! These will definitely will be funky. I'm planning on casting these on as a plain stockinette sock that I'll work on during meetings at work. This will be my first "at work" project. Both me and my boss are going to be calling them my Fidgetty Socks.
Make sure to check out more WIP Wednesday at Tamis Amis for more WIP Wednesday fun!

ReplyDeleteOH, I'm so jealous! My LYS carries the Dream in Color yarn, but whenever I go they seem to have only ugly colors left. Do you love the yarn???

I think I'm in love with the yarn too =) I admire that you do them at the same time - I've never gotten around to teaching myself that yet!
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised you're still in love with that yarn - it looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGlad your boss is understanding. I think so much better when my hands are moving, but I don't think my work would understand that!
What great colors! The yarn sounds wonderful, especially with that cashmere content. You are so lucky to be able to knit at work.
ReplyDeleteMMMM cashmere - looks and sounds lovely! Fidgety socks is the perfect label for at-work socks!
