I have finished the socks I was working on at our knit and natter. ravelry.com

I am now working on a different pattern and not enjoying the yarn at all.

I love the colour of those socks IM!:) I'm making myself a post-yoga cover for savasana as I get chilly lying flat out for five minutes. It's just a big rectangle in a variegated yarn that I have tons of.

Great work, icemaiden - were they complicated to do?

Quite fiddly with lots of stopping and starting, so lots of ends to sew in. The stripes are alternating 4 rows from both ends of the ball. The vertical stripes start on a removable cast on and you knit 4 rows then take out the thread and pick up the stitches and work around the four rows, which was a bit nerve-wracking.

I liked the yarn. I am now trying Noro silk garden sock yarn which I am not liking.

Sympathy, icemaiden. I hated Noro Silk Garden, though those that swear by it say it feels lovely after a wash.
