bedlamsbardY'all, I have finished my sock. My first FO of 2011! (Totally begun in 2010 for Socktober, but whatever.) My goal was to have it finished before the end of the weekend, and I finished all the toe shaping at the stroke of midnight last night, then kitchenered it and wove in all the ends just now, and now I have TWO FINISHED SOCKS.
The pattern is the Through the Loops Mystery Sock 2010 (Rav link) from Kirsten Kapur, in Malabrigo Sock "Persia" on US2 (2.75 mm) needles, and holy crap, this yarn bled like a mother. I'll take pictures later, but the five needles I used for knitting are now GREEN -- Brittany needles (don't recommend them, they're too dull) come in sets of six, and the sixth one is a completely different color than the other five. Which is weird, because the last Malabrigo I knit with didn't bleed at all: weirdness.
Anyway, this makes a kind of depressing morning pretty happy.
