Over the weekend I started a pair of generic socks for DH. The yarn is sport weight, and they are getting done so fast!

I’m hoping to get these done in pretty short order. He has requested a few more pairs, and I’d like to get one more pair done for myself this year and a pair of Christmas socks for my Mom. So I’ve got some things to get done!
At first glance I thought it was a bikini top for Dolores! I can see he’s into his same colors although there appears to be a sparkly white mixed in.

LOL! I do need to work on something new for Dolores soon 🙂
Yup – we are still in the man colors area of the yarn shop. The white is just plain, no sparkle.

Surprisingly, yes. I knit for myself most of the time, so a few things for others here and there is kind of interesting 🙂

I have to be candid here… I saw the picture and thought that you were knitting a bra or little top of some kind. Socks! I admire people that knit TAAT socks. Look at you go! I have to admit that I am relieved that they are socks as the color doesn’t scream “cute knitted bra top” at all. 🙂

LOL! I don’t have any plans to knit a bra or bikini, though they definitely do look that way at the start 🙂

They look good! Love the sparkly black. I’ve just started knitting socks with two circulars. I’ve always knitted socks on dpns, but I have been making slippers out of bulky yarn and 8mm bamboo needles. My hands and wrists were hurting from wrestling the yarn. I’m liking the circulars. I haven’t done two at a time yet though.

Thanks! If definitely can be a strain knitting bulky weight. Sounds like they should go fast, though 🙂

LOL! Well, they need to wait a little longer than if we were just going to the store, but they seem OK with it 🙂
