More Socks

Third in the unplanned hand spun sock yarn category. Two plies hand dyed super wash merino wool and one ply natural brown alpaca. Basic toe up pattern, short row heel. These are easy to work on while I visit my dad. The other brown socks are nearly done, but only about ankle high. Ran out of yarn. They wait on the needles while I either spin more yarn, or use up whatever is left over from the above pair.  Sigh. I haven't had anytime for spinning lately.

  1. They're looking lovely. I haven't had much knitting time lately, myself. I'm working on a baby sweater for a friend's upcoming baby, but the shower is Sunday and I have about three inches done. Fortunately, I bought a backup present!
