i started these charade socks (ravelry link) in march.
i just finished them this morning. lol.
i tossed them in a basket and forgot about them for a few months.
yesterday, i picked them up and just plowed through the second sock.
tofutsies it the splitt-iest(?) yarn i have ever used.
the sad part is the finished socks are so comfortable, that the splitting isn't even a deal breaker.
i *might* use it again. one day.
i picked the worst colorway webs had on purpose, but it really grew on me.
after a few sizing issues, i ended up casting on 72 stitches and then just followed the pattern 'as is'.
i'm so happy to have an FO to share!!!!
what are you working on???

I'm working on some skirtS! Cool socks!!:)
still working on christmas gifts :(
i plan to start a pair of socks directly after!
The socks are beautiful. I'm working on teaching a bunch of kids about the Kwakiutl. That's about all I can handle right now. Love your music, too!
They're beautiful! I used that yarn once too but it was too splitty for me to complete the project. I wonder if it's still kicking around somewhere...
I'm working on Socks for Giving from Purl Bee for S in a superwash because we learned the hard way that hand wash socks are not a good idea for him.
Good work man! It's going to be a good year for shooting down the UFO's! I finished a hat FINALLY I put it on Ravelry as my "Papas got a brand new hat" pattern. I'd have to knit it again to come up with a pattern.
They look so cozy! Charade rules.
I'm plugging away at Girasole and also making a vest with southwestern-style colourwork (at least I think I am).
i want a pair
hehe
