Outside In Socks


Sock knitting continues with the completion of one Outside-In sock. I must say that Socks that Rock always looks so yummy in a skein, but I find myself not always as delighted at the pooling in the finished product. I also absolutely have to figure out the right needle size for me for socks. I've had the hardest time knitting in the right gauge, always either too big or just a tad too small. I'm also quite sure that I'm done with sock knitting on wooden double pointed. At size 2.25 my needles start to look like tiny bows, and I've lost more than one needle in the process. So I am exploring some other options. Plastic just seems evil, so I'm on the look out of some metal needles. Romni is having a sale and I have yet to make use of it. I'm doing my best to keep myself at bay until I knit up all the new yarn I've bought over the last three years. Which, before you stare at me agape, is not actually that much.

I'm also pondering a little feature to add to here. I'll see how my time goes, but I'll keep it to myself for now. It's knitting related, I cant tell you that much.
