Are you sick of these yet? Sorry. I'm not - I'm actually getting rather charged up about socks again. The heel turning section of the Mystery Sock came out today, and so,
I've turned the heel. I expect by the weekend, I'll have caught up the second sock while waiting for the next section. I like the feel of knitting the Tofutsie yarn - I hope I like wearing it as well.
So, at this point, I have the first Mystery Sock at the heel, I have finished the first Ocean Toes sock, and I have returned to the Square Feet socks from last spring, rescued from SSS Island. Soon, I shall have a number of pairs of new socks to add to the sock drawer! And thus far, all of these have come from stash yarn.
I've also started going through older stash stuff. Yarn I've hauled from Montana to Utah to Maryland to Maine over the course of over a decade now. It was part of trying to photograph stash for Ravelry.... well, it made me realize this yarn needed to be loved by someone else. And so this past weekend, I gifted 300-400 skeins of fairly basic yarns to a co-worker. She can use what she wants, and find other homes for what is left. I still have a lot of very nice stuff I can use! Another positive side effect of joining Ravelry!


300 - 400 skeins???? HOLY MOLY!!!!!
Your sock looks great!
