Self-imposed Sock Club: March
I am supposed to be doing a self-imposed sock club, where I knit a pair of socks every month. The key words there are "supposed to be", I failed during February. The month just kind of got away from me.
But I am am back at it for March! Now that I have gotten through the birthday party for my now 3 year old (!), I can start on a pair of socks out of this beautiful yarn.
Hopefully, they turn out as pretty as they are in my mind. lol

Love Socks
What's this?! An actual post?! No way! I have finally decided to dust the cobwebs off and try to get this blog up and running again. Since my last post, I have had a baby girl (that is now 3 months old!), stopped and restarted knitting, and started a 365 project blog (http://365capture.blogspot.com/).
The first knitting project I have completed this year is these cute little socks for my cute little girls.

Needles: size 1 (2.25 mm) Knit Picks DPNs
Started: January 23, 2011
Finished: January 27, 2011
Notes: I used the idea of the pattern but sized it down to fit a 3 year old and a 3 month old.

Winter Socks for Aubrey
I decided that rather than buy Aubrey some more socks that I would make her some nice knit winter socks instead. I got enough yarn to (hopefully) make 5 pairs of socks for her little feet to keep them toasty warm.
This is the first pair I made, just basic socks no fancy cables or lace or anything. I made them so that they will fit all winter long. Which means they are a little big right now, but wearable.
Pattern: My own toe up baby sock "recipe"
Yarn: Koigu KPPPM color P404
Needles: size 1 dpns
Details: Not really much to say here, just basic socks. This was the first time that I used the Koigu yarn (which a lot of people rave about) and I have to say it is nice yarn. The colors are gorgeous and I think that is most of the appeal of it. It's a nice squishy yarn, and very soft. Maybe I am just cheap, but for the price I would never make socks for myself out of it, unless I found it on sale for cheap somewhere.
Mmmmm....socks
