Whitby Socks
I'm happy to finally report on a finished pair of socks! This pattern is "Whitby" from Knitting on the Road, which I started on the way home from knitting camp at the beginning of the month. I had to frog and restart once, as the number of stitches suggested just wasn't working for me. (I actually went up to 67 from the 51 suggested.) It was an easily memorized pattern and the cables were fun without being bothersome. I also tried out an eye of partridge heel for the first time. The yarn is the last of my Colinette Jitterbug; I love the colours, but I don't think I'll be getting any more. (My Vinnlands are already starting to pill and felt from a single wear.) I knitted these at the same time on 2.75mm needles using the two-circulars method. I think a goal of one pair per month is pretty do-able...
