Knitting on the Rogue River

The green socks are done! They only got worked on while riding to and from work or at work during lunch.

Mountain Colors Bearfoot sock yarn, color juniper. 64 st on 2.5mm needles. How I love this yarn!

I’ve signed up for Socktoberfest 2006 at Lolly’s site. It fits in nicely with Sock Wars and the other pairs of socks I have on the needles right now. Quesitonaire: When did you start making socks? Did you teach yourself or were you taught by a friend or relative? or in a class? I made [...]

Sock Vader, your doom is coming! See how I progress on the socks of your destruction! You cannot escape! You will not escape! Muywahahahahahaha! I can only hope my nemesis, the assassin Grrrl Shaped Thing, is not nearing the completion of my own demise!
