1.75 FOs!!

I'm so excited. I just finished more socks:



I actually really like these. They're just some simple top-downs made with some sock yarn I scored from this shop. I'm not sure if the seller is selling through etsy anymore, or not, though. Regardless, here are some more pictures:





Of course, once these were off the needles, I immediately cast on for some more:





These are just some simple toe-ups I'm making with sKNITches Syncopation in "Blue Lagoon". This is VERY nice yarn. Highly recommended.

And, finally, I started just one more pair (again, toe-up):



The yarn here is Prism Saki in "Mojave" that I got from the Haus of Yarn. The dye job on this yarn is very unique...check it out!

That's about all I've got for now. I've made a bunch of stash enhancements lately, but you can check those out on Ravelry. But, just so you know, I may be making a slight deviation from sock knitting to make some toys for some tots I know for Christmas - I got this book last night:



Seriously, this book is amazing. I can now make a warthog if I wanted to.

Smiles,
Erin

The Prism is really pretty. Interesting how much different yarn looks once you knit it.

Warning - Great Adirondack trunk show this week and next at the Haus. They have sock yarn.... I am hoping it is all sold when I get there. I work both this Sat and next so I think I won't be that 'lucky.' ha

Wow, I am really digging the Prism Saki. I had never heard of it before. Cannot wait to see the finished socks...you are so fast, I am guessing the end of the week?
