Only the toe

and then the first of this pair is done. I had to make up one pair for my DD, as the initial pair went overseas. The reason is something that I still have to keep secret, as it is still pending. Currently working on the second sock...

The second picture shows my piece that I knit on Lieke's scarf. We are over half way now with the traveling scarf project...

relaxing...

Although I have a spinning wheel, I sometimes find it relaxing to grab a spindle. The fiber was part of a swap box (favourite things swap) and was added to fill the space. My estimate is that it is approximately 25-50 grams. I am not done spinning it all up, but love the way how it goes through the hands.

Finished!

The first pair in the 52 pair plunge is ready. I like how it turned out now, as I had to frog the first sock. The pattern and I did not agree about the way it was done, so I shifted it one stitch. Problem solved.

I used 350 meter Regia 4 fädig.

One pair done, and a new one started.

I finished the socks in the lovely ribbing pattern. They were flying through my hands. This morning I also started the first pair for June...(I am participating in the 52 pair plunge on Ravelry... so that is going to become a promising sock year.)

The yarn for the red socks is Regia 4 ply. For the other pair I used a whopping 390 meters.
