Raven Swirl Socks

Raven Swirl Socks

I made it my goal this year to catch up on the Rockin’ Sock club and keep up with it this year (don’t worry, I’m failing miserably). This was November 2009, Raven Swirl.

These were knit in the “Blackbird” Colorway dyed for the Rockin’ Sock Club. The pattern was the Raven Swirl from November 2009 knit on US Size 2 needles. These took me about two months to knit but I also found a few other things come up in between socks. I absolutely loved the way these socks came out. I accidently kept going on the twist on the foot, so it kind of keeps twisting, but the socks don’t twist that much and work perfectly still!

I’m getting a little behind in the socks as I’m trying to get a few things out of the way, but we’ll see! I’d like to be caught up by the July package, but I said that about May too :) . I’m thinking about skipping March for now as they’re toe up, and cute but not going to go incredibly fast and I want to get a few more pairs of semi-mindless socks done before jumping into focusing on socks again. I have a lot to knock out in the next few months!

December 25, 2009

Every family has at least one holiday tradition. I hope at least. While my family has a variety of traditions that range from when I was a kid to new ones formed in recent years. Every year there is a set of stockings that hangs above our fireplace with all of our names on them. [...]

Knitting Up Dr. Who

November 24, 2009

About two years ago my friend, Greg, asked me to knit him a Dr. Who Scarf. For those of you who do not know the history of the scarf, I recommend you read up on it. I’m not a Dr. Who fan myself but the history of the scarf is fun, and something that only [...]
