A couple of days before Christmas, I finished all of my 22 projects! Needless to say, I was (and still am) super pleased with myself! I decided that I definitely needed a break from all knitting and crocheting for a while, just to recuperate.
I'm pretty sure that the fates were against this resolution, because on Christmas morning, I got some FABULOUS interchangeable knitting needles!
"I am TAKING A BREAK!" I told myself, about a billion times that day. However sorely I was tempted, I stayed strong and only opened the container a couple of times to look at them. But by the next day, any resolve I had broke.
"Nope, I can't do this anymore!" I said. So I knitted a small short row swatch. Then, looking at the swatch gave me a brilliant idea. I'm going to make some socks!
So I did make some socks, using my Christmas needles, and I finished them on the 31st!
I made them with worsted weight acrylic yarn, and I have to say that they are very comfortable and warm!
If you would like to make this pattern, you can buy the book The Joy of Sox from Amazon.
