Toe up baby socks in Bambino Merino mauve multi for my niece born this month. Cast on after joining SSoS.
Question:
Do Christmas Stockings count as socks? I have plenty of red and green 4 ply intended for stockings for my parents this Christmas (maybe).

Hey, welcome! I just started the Widdershins. LOVE the cast on. SO MUCH BETTER than the On Your Toes cast on. It's so tidy!
Millthorpe! I'm in Blayney. I was starting to think there were no other knit-bloggers in the Central West!
Hi Kate,
I wondered where you were after reading your posts about the botanical gardens, yesterday.
I work in Blayney and I too was wondering if this was a technological black hole. LOL
Oh, the technology is here, just not in conjunction with the knitters!
welcome! If it makes you feel any better, I've got enough sock yarn for at least 40 pairs (I've actually lost count...)
Welcome! That's a nice load of sock yarn you have there!
I'm making a couple of Christmas stockings. I figured every two is a pair. However, the needle size is bigger, so I may count every pair as a baby pair.
