Just getting started with my first "toe-up" sock. Can you believe with the dozens of pairs of socks I've knitted, they have always been cuff down.
The flowers are optional! I think I will to a variation of this one and can't wait to "play" with my idea!
Not sure about the placement of this one and the comfort when wearing a shoe.
I love to go down by the lake, sit under a shade tree, and knit!
Some sit and enjoy the scenery. I didn't capture the Adirondack (NY) mountains in this picture but the view is breathtaking!
Others are fishing!
I like to find shelter under one of these trees. I always will see at least one woodpecker, often there are ducks as well! I'm am so fortunate!
Don't forget that this is "World-wide knit in public" week. For my local knitters, I'll see you at Burlington City Hall Park on Saturday. The weather is suppose to be beautiful!
Happy Knitting!!!!
I love the photos. I'd like to be the fishing lady. Angie and I have seen the book and I want to buy it one of these days, but first I have to fill up the proprane tank. Have fun sitting by the lake. Renate
ReplyDeleteNice looking book ! I love the little flowers ! Does anyone pay full price for a knitting book ? I hope not ! Your photos are lovely, makes me want to pack up and drive to the first lake.
ReplyDeleteWhooo....Look at you...doing your 1st Toe-Up sock & on DPN, too! Be careful, this method of knitting socks is very additive, too.
ReplyDeleteI love that sock design & the colorway that you're using. Very nice!
Hmm...I just might have to get this sock book.
You're lucky to have nice weather. It's been raining here for a week and a half. those socks are lovely. I've been doing toe-up socks for a couple years now, mainly because I enjoy the cast on and I don't like the kitchener stitch.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog.
Beautiful sock! I've now knit one toe-up and one cuff-down...and I like toe-up most of all. I've been eyeing that book fondly and glad to hear you give it a "thumbs up"!
