Sock Mania

Lots has been going on here...

I started the Summer 2008 socks as part of Summer of Socks...

I'm further along than this now, but haven't taken another photo. I'm almost to the heel on sock #1 - yes, it's going a bit slowly.

Two views of the Cleopatra's Stockings socks:



I am about halfway on sock #2.

Some new yarn acquisitions (note the photos have decided to be large, regardless of my whims):


Sportweight superwash by bellamoden, Possession colorway



All Things Heather in Spiced Plum


WOLLMEISE! This is Indisch Rot..


And Krauterbeet. Looking forward to knitting with both. It was a total fluke that I got these.

Looking forward to being done with the Cleopatra's Stockings. I had to completely start over with Sock #2 on Saturday...and now I am ready to be done. Am just shy of where I was on the first photo above...so finishing sometime this week is within reach - especially if I do manage to take Friday off this week. I have it scheduled, but you never know.

Ohhh...Wollmeise. You lucky girl! I've not actually seen any in person. What's it like?

It's intensely colored and very soft. I haven't knit with it yet, but promise to share photos when I do!
