the end is near.. let's celebrate!
hmm? what's this?
a sock! a finished stripey sock!
and it fits! better than any sock i've ever made! perhaps the short row heel is the way to go for me? i'll be casting on its mate tonight - and, in case i am stupid and forget, it's 60 stitches around, size 1.5 needles. and for once, i'll have a pair of socks done one after the other.. instead of being done months apart. go me!
ETA: the yarn is Regia Canadian Color, in the Alberta colorway.i've never been to Alberta, so i can't say that everything is all 70s colored there, but who cares? it's pretty anyway. and i like the yarn so much that i'll be taking a trip to a yarn shop in niagara falls in the near future, just to pick up some more of it.
