The KAL (Knit Along) for Crimple, a toe-up sock design, is finished through Week 3. Michelle Hunter, designer from KnitPurlHunter will publish Week 4 today and I will be ready to finish my sock. I've been using a long circular needle (2.5 mm or US#1) and doing the magic loop method of sock knitting.
Here's the sock with Week 1 (cast on and knit the toe), Week 2 (knit the foot), and Week 3 (knit the heel) completed in the CoBaSi yarn that we are carrying at Graywood Designs.
Now is a great time to begin this project since you can see all four steps of sock knitting and will know just where your knitting is headed. The CoBaSi is a non-wool yarn that flows through your fingers softly and evenly. It is a joy to knit..

Oh, I'm still behind!!! That's because I this project inspired me to return to a crazy sweater I've been creating for over a year. About halfway through the foot. Pretty soon, I'll have a new pair of socks AND a sweater!
ReplyDeleteI finished a hat this week after I got the sock heel done. And I have laid out a scarf to add a few inches on and then bind off. Jeepers, a scarf! How can that take so long! It's lace knitting and I'm gonna get it done!
