Well I have to say, I loved knitting the socks. I am on the look out for the new Patons Patonyle 4ply pattern book, it has some great sock patterns along with hats, scarfs and gloves. I called into the LYS at lunchtime to see if she may have it, as she has sold the shop and changes over in a couple of weeks. She just laughed, and the bad news is that the people aren't going to buy the shop now and the lease runs out next week so she is having a half price sale and shutting the doors in a week. Well I was already running late but I had to see the wool, well I couldn't think of what I wanted to knit so I rummaged through for a bit, then decided to come back on Monday when I kinda sort out what I might knit, and the budget has to be juggled again a bit, why does that always happen, all the bargains are around when I haven't got much money....bugger.
Anyway here are the socks, they feel great on.
I will keep going with the Christmas stash and finish the mohair scarf in the "Lacy Scarf" pattern from the Australian Creative Knitting magazine, I am still waiting for one of the needle sets I ordered, hopefully they will come today, otherwise I will have to wait till next weeks mail comes.
