Finished Sock Gallerie!
I so loved working with the Fleece Artist yarn that was gifted to me during SP6 from Killer Peach that I booked through knitting the socks for the Red Hot Sizzling Socks KAL hosted by Becky.
Pattern: Slipped Stitch Rib from Sensational Kniited Socks by Charlene Schurch
Yarn: Fleece Artist Merino (Ruby Red, I think, it actually didn't say of the tag)
Yarn Source: SP#6 Killer Peach
Needles: Lantern Moon Ebony #3 double-pointed (on 4)
Receipient: Yours truly
Sock #1 start: January 25, 2006
Sock #1 finish: January 28, 2006
Sock #2 start: January 29, 2006
Sock #2 finish: January 29, 2006
Notes: This was a quick and fun pattern...easy to memorize and I said earlier Fleece Artist is wonderful fiber to work with (I still have some leftover...and yes it is still in a blob!)
