Wow! Two posts in less than a month! Here is a picture of my cool socks! Montgolfiere by Stephanie van der Linden. A friend was making a pair, using the black and a self striping yarn and I totally copied hers. I love them. They were very fun to make.
And I am currently working on two projects that I am really liking, a pair of mystery socks from the Through the Loops group on Ravelry and the Raglan Rust sweater from Knitter's magazine, winter 2008. It is knit with two strands of sock yarn held together and I am loving it. Mine, of course, is not rust and has just a bit of purple in it. I am using one strand of Noro Kuryeon sock and one strand of Knitpicks. The two skeins don't look all that great together, but they make the greatest tweedy fabric. I am working on the sleeves right now since I want to make them longer than the 3/4 ones in the pattern and I don't want to be worrying about having enough yarn left. After the sleeves are done, then I will go back and finish the body and can decide on the length based on the amount of yarn at that point.
