i am back on track i think with lady eleanor. this time, i am knitting with size 7 turbos, as my gauge was really loose with 8's, once i began to knit and purl backwards. of course, i'm still sitting on the fence about this ... and essentially have two lady e's in progress!





but, i am not on the fence about this sock any longer ... it's a keeper !

Wow, there's just something about noro and entrelac that has me speechless. Soo beautiful!! And that sock is looking pretty sweet too. The leaves are very clear and delicate.

Lady Eleanor is looking very splendid. I agree, the Noro and the Entrelac just says "wow!". And that sock is great too, what's the pattern?

these are both lovely, if not AT ALL what i told you to knit! your mom is totally going to have to fight me for those socks.

I think both of those projects are total keepers. From the pictures, it looks like the 7's are a good choice, remembering that the stitches might open a bit during blocking.

i love lady eleanor—and wish i had the patience to make one, but i find even the thought of entrelac hateful—is that beig closed-minded??

Damn, girl....you are a pro knitter. The pattern on the sock--beautiful leaf shapes. I've been proud I finally learned to cable! Your WIP's are inspiring!

Evelyn Clark OWNS me; her sock patterns are so simple and elegant and pretty. I should take out an insurance policy on her or something. I love the color you chose for the socks. I can't wait to wear them!
