  2. FO: PSC2011 February Socks

    February 21, 2011 by sunrisesister

    This is my first post-surgery FO! Perhaps diving straight back into 4 ply was a little extreme, but that was the luck of the draw.. literally!

    Feb personal sock club - pink ms gusset!

    Not a great photo, I admit, but I am hoping the recipient will model them for me, when they reach her ;)

    Pattern: Anklet-style adaptation of the Colinette Jitterbug ballband pattern

    Yarn: ms. gusset sock yarn in a bright hot variegated pink. (I nicknamed it Barbie Car)

    Sticks: 2.5mm DPN’s

    Size: EUR 39/UK6/AUS7

    Rav Link

    Nice, quick, and very pleasing! It’s good to be back!


  3. Bessie

    This is Bessie. Actually her full title is Sixty Buck Bangin’ Bendigo Bessie.

    Bessie

    We met a few weeks ago now, when the lovely Tara brought her down to Melbourne on a road trip. It was decided that Bessie would come to my house for a visit.. to fulfil my spinning urges, and to see how we got along.

    Well. We got along well. Very well. And it was decided that she would make this her home…

    In bloom

    100gm of EGMTK Merino/Soy blend, In Bloom. It’s not perfect, because 1) I cant feel my hands, therefore making controlling the twist a little tricky, and 2) because I am a n00b and plied it the wrong way before rescuing it.

    It’s so so so good to be spinning again. Alas, I have no fibre stash, so will have to do some shopping when my favourite indie dyers do updates..
