I want to knit three pairs of socks this year. Progress is slow but steady.
Pair no.1 is “Vanilla Lattes” in reliable Patons Kroy Socks yarn (75% SW wool, %25 nylon). At $2 per skein, on clearance, I can almost ignore how boring the color is. Ravelry project page here.
I am now looking for the plainest vanilla socks pattern for socks no. two. Can’t wait to use my vibrant Lorna’s Laces Sheperd Sock Multi in Black Purl.

Those look so comfy cozy! I really like the neutral color, but bright socks are amazing too! I can't wait to see how your next pair turns out 🙂

They are super squishy 🙂 I would love to have a drawer full of socks, with plenty of options — color wise–so I can wear them depending on my mood 🙂

It's good to be working on your goals! I also tend to mess up whenever a pattern calls for too little of my attention. But luckily these came out great 🙂

I can't wait to cast on the next pair. I've also started spinning for a sweater (or at least a big project). So, yes, it feels good to be working on goals 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
