2 needle socks
Now Playing: I have been knitting these socks since Dec 29th
I have been knitting these 2 needle socks since December 29th. It seems like they took forever. I used a size 2 needle. This is the first time that I have ever used a size 2 needle, and it is the first time that I have ever done a three needle cast off. I like the 3 needle cast off better then the kitchener st. The is also the first time that I have ever knit a pair of 2 needle socks. I think that I prefer the socks knit with double pointed needles. To many seams to sew with the 2 needle pattern. I used some yarn that I bought last summer while I was on vacation in the Black Hills, in Spearfish, South Dakota. The yarn is sock yarn called Reynolds swizzle. It is 75% Merino superwash, 25% Nylon. The pattern came from http://www.lindascraftique.com/free/tnsocks.htm

Look at my boy
Mood:
cheeky
Now Playing: He is a very Spoiled boy
Isn't he so handsome? Now Elvis and his Mommy have matching sweaters. We will make a fine looking pair when we go for long walks together. I used my favorite Dog sweater pattern. The pattern is at http://doggoneknit.com/?page_id4 I really like this pattern because of the Velcro closure under the neck and under the tummy. It makes getting the sweater on and off very easy. I used Red Heart Bright and Lofty, the color Beach, and 1 strand of Alpaca the color Royal blue to make the sweater extra warm. It can get very cold in South Dakota in the winter.
