Sample Socks Finished

Two at a Time Sample Socks

Two at a Time Sample Socks

I finished my sample two at a time socks. It was easy. I am not sure how much harder a complicated stitch pattern would make things, but I am going to give it a go.

I’m currently swatching this yarn. I did have to make a ball from a skein, but it wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be.

While knitting I have been watching the third season of Castle – doesn’t distract from the knitting.

I do like this series – it is fun and easy to watch.

Two at a time progress

Just the leg to finish!

Just the leg to finish!

My tiny sample socks are progressing. I have just got the leg to finish off now – this two at a time thing seems OK. I haven’t knitted one of the socks with the other’s yarn – I am sure that must happen.

I wasn’t very good at picking up the wraps and knitting them. I must have done something wrong because it looks a bit odd – something to work on next time.

Two at a Time

Two at a time toe up socks

Two at a time toe up socks

I have started two toe up socks at the same time – just little sample ones.

So far so good – it easier than I expected although I suspect a complicated pattern might require more thought. It should mean that both socks are exactly the same, no more trying to remember how many rounds the leg or foot was.

I am following the instructions in this book – now that I have got going I’m not sure I needed a book, but perhaps I would never have started without the book.
