By using lunchtimes and the drive time back and forth to last weekend’s fiber festival, I have finally gotten to the heel part. It is an afterthought heel, so the waste yarn is in, and now I’m starting on the leg part. I have an inch and a half or so to go, then it’s time to do intarsia in the round!
At that point I plan to slip them onto double point needles and do them one at a time. The intarsia part is on the “outside” side of the calf for each sock, so I think for this first try with this technique I will take it easy 🙂
It’s Monday, so the latest clue for the Perfect Blend MKAL shawl was released. These socks are calling me to get moving, but my fingers appreciate the break with bigger needles for a little while!
How are your projects going? Are you getting any knitting done in spite of the summer heat?

Oh that’s going to be super interesting to see the intarsia on them!

This process is just amazing to me. I always just knitted socks one at a time. Of course, I am not the expert you are by any stretch of the imagination.

I really love the yarn that you are using. I can’t wait to see how they turn out. I have been knitting a little bit, but only a row here or there. I need to buckle down and get some projects off the needles.

Lovely socks. I am knitting because of the summer thunderstorms in FL. This one stretches all across the state! Oh well, I am on vacation!
