Picking up the Needles

knitting socks
February 2019
It has been months since I knit a pair of socks (other than the baby socks I knit for the shower), and I've honestly missed it.

Yarn: Crazy Zauberball

Needles: US size 2

Stitches: 64

Pattern: ribbed cuff, plain foot

Note: The blue netting I'm using as a yarn sock was cut from an old bath puff. It's secured with a knot on one end, and a removable stitch marker on the top. It keeps the yarn corralled and clean.

  7. That's just brilliant!!! I get antsy when I don't have socks on the needles. I find plain old vanilla socks are a great stress reliever.
