Like Riding a Bike . . .

sock knitting
February 2019
Even though it's been months since I've knit a pair of socks, I've discovered it's like riding a bike: it's a skill that the body remembers without too much effort. The last pair(s) of socks I knit were completed in July. Yikes, that's SEVEN months without knitting a pair of socks!

I just finished the sixth row of the gusset, so I will soon be cruising through the foot section. Knitting notes can be found here.

    Do you have any idea how many pairs of socks you have knitted? You always do a fantastic job.

    Beautiful socks. I agree that both knitting and crocheting are something that you just don’t forget once you know it. Blessings, Betsy

    I have a couple of pairs of hand knit socks that my cousin has gifted me. They are very warm. These will be very pretty based on the hints of color we can see.

    I don't think I could go that long without knitting socks!

    It's like coming home after a long trip! (or like finding your new home is really feeling like home after 7 months!)

    Well I am not so sure about that, it probably is for seasoned knitters! I make notes!! :)

    I think the sheer quantity of socks you've knit probably helps that body memory. Me, eh, not so much!
