Have to confess I haven't tried it yet, I figured I'd master the knitting on two circular needles technique first (bonus: no making up, and can't lose the fourth needle, plus they become much more portable!) Have a bit of a passion for self striping bamboo sock wool. Baby clothes and socks are the only things I've ever finished because I get bored making anything bigger :p Athena sell socks in threes...ilovehotchocolatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00412377291464647640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787667491278694309.post-11399025025434891642010-05-09T20:45:44.674+01:002010-05-09T20:45:44.674+01:00I thought you were meant to be knitting! ;-)

The...It was a bit of a rhetorical question really. The problem is that much as I quite enjoy knitting socks, once I have knit one of a pair and seen how the pattern and the yarn work together, I want to start work on a different pattern and different wool. <br /><br />However, I do love the feel of proper handmade socks. So much nicer than shop bought ones.madsadgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02406362172304786268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787667491278694309.post-67896594905923698102010-05-09T20:28:56.519+01:002010-05-09T20:28:56.519+01:00I think because we have 2 feet, and so what would ...I think because we have 2 feet, and so what would you do with 1 sock? Some people don't wear their socks in pairs though - they just wear any 2 socks together, but I don't like that. I like them to feel the same.Bippideehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10499124986641789890noreply@blogger.com
