the cable sweat socks were finished last weekend while i was in town.i quite like the way they look and fit. i especially like the look of the heel. if you click on the picture you can get a closer look at the heel stitches. i will definitely use this pattern again. perhaps i'll use some of the alpaca yarn in my stash or better still i'll use some of my handspun. the next day i started another pair of briggs and little heavy socks.
this time i'm using three colours, light grey, oxford( dark grey) and dark maroon. i'm making up the stripe pattern as i knit. so far i like the striping. i am now knitting both socks at the same time to insure even tension in both socks. this seems to work well.
it is a cold rainy weekend so i will have lots of time to work on knitting, carding,spinning and canvaswork projects.
