You Spin Me.

i just finished the RPM socks from knitty.com. I used all the methods I've never tried before, to make it more exciting (i.e. short-row heel, and the pointed toe). I ended up frogging the heel like, 7 times, but in the long run it was totally worth it.

i actually had enough yarn to make the a lil' longer but i was afraid of coming up short.





Pattern Particulars

Pattern Source: RPM Socks by Aija Goto via Knitty.com
Needles: Addi Turbo US size 1 32" circular (Magic Looped)

Time: alot, i started them the first time in May and frogged a lot of times.

Greetings All!

Hello,

I am new to the group and just wanted to say hello. Don't know what exactly to say about myself except that I love knitting and music (guess that says it all!). A little sample of something I knit up recently. This is the Lana & Clark Ascot from Vickie Howell of Knitty Gritty. If anyone is interested in the pattern, here is the link:

I knit it up with "Rock", from Vickie Howell's new line of yarn in the color Joan. It was a lot of fun to do - especially the picot edging. Well, that's it for now. I'm looking forward to chatting with you all. Cheers!
