Then I tried socks. I used the dpns and malibrigo yarn. It knits up really nice. I have one sock finished and just have a couple inches to go on the second one. The dpns were really easy. I didn't even get bothered by the ones hanging when they weren't in use. I have had the second one almost finished for several months. I hope when I pick them back up I can remember what I was doing! I would never pay nearly $20 for one pair of socks but at is what the yarn costs!
Patti, your hand warmers are very nice and they look more difficult than the socks I make. You have done beautifully on your socks too. That color yarn is one of my favorite. Nicely done. Your dpns look a lot longer than what I use. What length are they? I learned on 6" dpns and now I have a pair of 5" ones that work well too. They don't get in the way of each other.
ReplyDeleteThe dpns I used are 5". They worked really well for me.
DeleteWay to GO! I was in your place a few months ago and finally finished my first pair of socks with DPNs. Frankly, my feeling is that I DID IT and don't need to do it again--LOL!
ReplyDeleteI really want to start another pair but I won't until I finish these. I don't want to have unfinished socks like I do quilts!
