Hoilday Socks
I was a busy bee while I was away. I complete my socks that rock! They are pretty!

Yarn: Sock that Rock, 2 skeins, Cobalt Bloom, Sent to me by Christine.
Pattern: My own, Toe Up, Two at a time . Short row heel and toe. Knit 3 purl 1 pattern.
Time: Started December 21, 2005 Finished January 1, 2006 the early morning hours!
Needles: Addi turbo #1, 40 inches.
Notes: Each sock is slightly different color wise because I decided to knit each sock with it's own skein. Since I have such big feet I didn't think I could get 2 socks out of one skein and I was right! But I love them even though they are slightly different. I have already worn them and washed and dried them, and they are even more cozy and soft now! I love this yarn, I will definitely be getting more soon, especially now that they have made the skeins larger!

Here is the up close! While I was in Charleston I went to an amazing yarn store, I would say it was the best store i had every been too. It was called Knit, and it was in downtown in a cute converted house. They even had a cute little dog on a couch! They were so nice, I just had to get some sock yarn.

The first two are Koigu and the last is Cherry Tree Hill, all of which I can't get at my local stores. I also picked up a Addi in a size 0, 40 inch of course. I wanted to buy more, but I was proud I didn't over do it! I see more socks in my future! Maybe I should change the name of my blog to All Socks All The Time....
Our vacation was great! But it is nice to be home and back to normal. Vito had a great time with his other doxie friends, he didn't even miss us while we were gone! I did have some internet withdrawals, but the break was appreciate! I have got a lot to knit this year!

Definitely do the Cherry Tree Hill toe-up. I have big feet (11), and unless they changed the skein length, my pair were some pretty short socks - I knit each sock from the opposite end of the skein so I could use every possible inch of yarn. But they feel great, and I have plenty more CTH in my stash, just waiting...
Happy new year.
