Finishing
My knitting group companions Erin and Jessica of the Doubleknit Podcast have decided that 2012 is the year of FFS - the Finish, Frog, and Slog along.
As someone with far too many WIPs, I think this is a splendid idea. So here's my first finish:
I started these plain socks for Halloween, but as you can see it took me a while to get to them. I like wearing plain stockinette socks, and I have a lot of variegated yarn, so I try to keep some going most of the time.
Started: 10/6/11
Finished: 1/19/12
Yarn: Crash Into Ewe in Monster Mash
So, after finishing these plain socks, I started another pair in the yarn I dyed at Stephania's class. It started off like this:
And changed to this:
And is making some interesting striping socks, which I'll show you in a bit!
I've also been putting in some time on some languishing non-sock projects, but more on that later.

One of my Resolutions this year was to knit 3 pairs of socks. I cast on the first sock last week.
I totally forgot how fun it was just to watch the yarn & see how it comes out.
I like the dye job your did on the yarn can't wait to see how they look.
I am finding that more and more I only want to knit vanilla socks. The yarn you dyed is lovely and I cannot wait to see it knit up.
