on the left is cauchy from cookie a's _sock innovation_. i'm knitting it with one of my purchases from SAFF last fall, miss babs bamboo baby. the yarn has a very nice lustre, but sometimes one of the plies will get caught on a needle and pull out a bit. the sock on the right is nancy bush's childs french sock from _knitting vintage socks_. the yarn is cascade heritage. i LOVE cascade heritage.
i knitted on both of these last weekend, and then it's just been bits here and there, as i've worked a lot of overtime in the past week. and then today, i kinda got distracted with something else ...
this is going to be haruni. here's a link to the project page on ravelry. it's a free download. yay!
the other day i wanted to wrap a red shawl around my neck, and i realized i didn't have one. well ... i will soon enough! at this point, the project is mindless enough that i can watch movies and knit w/o really missing anything.
of course, it helps if you have a chart keeper.
okay, back to knitting. and for reading later in bed, i picked up the new VK today.

The socks are just lovely! And I didn't know that such a thing as a chart keeper existed. I think I need to do some more investigating...
Happy knitting! =)
I need a chart keeper and I didn't know it. Thank you for enlightening me. The sock look like so much fun!
I'm going to have to break down and buy that Vintage Sock Book. Where do I find the Cascade Heritage yarn?
