We had a very fall-like weekend. The high temp yesterday was only 54*F! I finished these socks in a very fall-like colorway last week and am just now getting around to posting.
This is Knit PIcks Felici in the colorway "Clay" (although I keep thinking of Indian Corn when I see them!) I decided to do toe-up and use up each ball completely. Consequently, the feet are a hair too big for me. I'm counting on them shrinking up just a tad when I wash them.
I also started another pair using Paton's Kroy from Hobby Lobby. It's the line called FX and I really like what this colorway is doing!
I'm knitting these with 64 sts to the round and the fabric is coming out dense. I think these are going to make very warm socks!
Yes, I'm on a sock knitting bender. I noticed that most of my hand knit socks were darned at least once, if not more. I have given several pairs away and decided to go on a spree of sock making for myself. In doing so I have decided I LOVE my Kollage square needles!! I'm using the 5" and 6" double points in size US#1. (Although I just got some US#0 today! Yippee!!)
Happy knitting!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr 54 degrees !!! Where are you ?
I love the socks and I love all of the Kroy yarns ! Very nice.
I have one set, and I too LOVE those square needles. I wish I could afford to replace all my needles with them!
