Is this obsessive?
Yet another pair of sock, and another picture of my feet. Have I mentioned yet that I love knitting socks? They are a wearable quick knit, that is pretty comfy. I did have to chase after my dog down the street in these new sock, after he got out of our friends backyard. But both him and my socks are ok. the dark pink in this Regina sock yarn has stained the bottom of my converse, but other than that these are my favorite pair so far.
I have started yet another pair, which I think equals 4 pairs at this point. This time I decided to try the magic loop technique. It so much easier to learn than I thought it would be. I am not sure if it will completely replace all my dnp's, but it is pretty awesome. I am not quite as fast as I was with my double points, but I can see this getting much faster. The yarn above is sport weight wool I dyed with koolaid, my very first dye job. I think I am getting obsessive with hand knit socks. I do have plently of other things to be knitting, so maybe this week I will work on them, or maybe not.

I got your comment the other day. You're the second person that has told me that my email doesn't work...but I'm not sure what's going on! Although I would LOVE a custom Misocrafty knitting bag, I think I'll have to wait until I have time to do a fair trade with you. Right now I'm swamped with knitting and school and I have no idea what I could possible give you that you would want in return!
On another note, my neighbor is still working on having hook-arms made for the pirate store and she will probably be getting a hold of you about those hook-warmers within the next couple of months.
I have downloaded the pattern. First I need a couuple of great shots of Vito and second the size. LMK ANN
ps I love all the socks I am on my second pair of Alisons and they rock. I am going to try the loop method tonight lOOKs way to easy. Just figured it out by looking at your site.
