FO - Little Sky Sock

Last night we had our first get together for the KAL at my LYS and we all decided that we will do one learning sock per week.

I brought the makings for the ABC stitch markers - got the beads over the weekend and brought enough for everyone - that was a great ice breaker.

We all cast on the Little Sky sock and I got thru the heel turn last night. I finished up the foot this morning when I should have been getting ready for work and now I am going to have to drive like the dickens to be on time this morning.

It's very cute and really illustrates the concept of putting the arch expansion stitches on the front of the foot instead of along the ankle.

Four baby socks done

Hello, I'm Trish, and I have knit my 'try out' baby socks, 2 each of the Little Sky and Little Coriolis patterns. I did one of each sock on DPNs and then one on magic loop single circular needle, so I think I understand the stitch management needed for both of those techniques. I haven't decide which adult sock I will do next--need to finish up some other things first. I am leaning toward the Rushing Rivulets socks on page 91 but the Bartholomew's Tantalizing socks posted here look interesting too.

My Little Sky socks were knit in Crystal Palace Bunny Hop, a microfiber/angora blend, and the Little Coriolis were knit in Berroco's Love It Colors which is a cotton/acrylic/polyester blend. I didn't realize the long color runs on the Love It would lead to such mis-matched mates, but there they are.
