Well, what projects do you want to do whilst things are in storage? If it’s socks, then buy new.
Also, storage - whilst it’s there, it kinda isn’t your stash

No, I’m nearly there…
But before this pair it’s been a while since I finished any socks. I lost my sock mojo for a bit.

Officially finished and posted:
Husband wanted me to add claws, but I can’t think of a good way to do it. They just need a good wash before going to their new home. My cousin is allergic to cats and there’s a non zero amount of cat in these quackers.

Day eleventy-billion,
Dear diary,
I have not forgotten about the socks. On the contrary, we sit together at some point every day and pointedly ignore each other. I’m currently blaming the color of the yarn, which isn’t fair, it’s my 14 hour days with no breaks that are killing my mojo (but, also, the yarn is kind of weird. I’m finding it “too fleshy” now which is off-putting to even think nevermind knit. Lol)
Perhaps the socks will get tired of waiting and knit themselves. Stranger things have happened.
Signed,
Tirrrrred.

I feel like I knew when I bought it that I felt meh about it but was too high on the idea of a sockalong Right.Now! that I plowed right over those feelings.
I mean, it isnt terrrrrrible, but it isnt great.

Haha…well that’s more than I’m doing with my 2nd sock. It’s still just a toe and very “out of sight out of mind” right now. I will pick it up again! But prob not today or tomorrow…or the day after that.

I have finished another sock I want to share! This one was a fun and quick toe-up, with the after-thought heel. That was a new heel to me, but it was a nice one. Fits good. Only problem is the kitchener stitch when sewing it together. Havent got the hang of it just yet.
Its a very pink sock. Now I just need to make the other!
If you think it looks difficult I can say its a piece of cake. I found the pattern on a swedish blog, but it is two rows of color 1, and then with color 2 you knit two rows, but every 6th (so 5 stitches in between) you lift one stitch. Thus you get the stripes.

It was! And so fast! Much faster then when I knit socks for my best friend, but that might have to do with different feet size!

In a shocking plot-twist no one saw coming I actually worked up 4 rounds on The Sock this afternoon. It has been all over town all week, keeping me company in the evenings, and sleeping on my bedside table. Finally, finally, I actually picked it up.
Maybe I’ll turn that heel yet. Lol
