Sockin’ Along

Lily has just announced Sugar ‘n Cream Twists, a marl/ragg version of their cotton. The color selection is small but respectable; I’ll have to keep an eye out for them around here.

I’ve been working on the Fluted Banister socks every time I go mall-walking. I can finish 1-2 inches in a hour, so it takes a while to knit both insteps. As of this weekend, I’ve started the second instep. It’s all stockinette, so I won’t bore you with pictures.

Some of you guessed correctly that my new socks in progress are the Mermaid Socks from Lucy Neatby’s Cool Socks, Warm Feet. The effect the Estonian Fishtail stitch pattern has on the self-striping yarn was a lucky bonus.
