...of the new decade. I present the new and improved Fraternity Flag Socks 2.0!
Still have some ends to weave in, but these will be winging their way back to the Boyo in Heidelberg on Saturday. Here are the stats:
Yarn - Blue Moon Fiber Arts Sock Candy in Poppy(red) and Sunlight (yellow)
Needles - US 1 Signature dpns - "I'm a Stilletto"
Pattern - Amy's Favorite Sock Recipe, assembled by Amy Singer
Improvements - 72 st foot, 66 st leg, better understanding of the Japanese short row heel technique, and better understanding of the gusset.
Cast on - December 19,2009
Cast off - January 6, 2010
Now I'll cast on socks I promised nephew Quinn as a Christmas present . I aim to attempt Melissa Morgan-Oakes' 2-at-a-time technique. Also, I requested to join the UFO Smackdown 2010 group on Facebook. With only nine workdays left, soon I will have time to smack some of those lingering UFOs (there are plenty) down. At least I think I will. I'm smacking down the unfinished projects at work, why couldn't I do it at home?
That's all for now. Hooray for FOs!
