Focus on the positive

Ta da! Finally, pictures of my lovely FOs. First: Paris Rain Pedicure Socks (pattern from Knitty, yarn is Artyarns Paris Rain from Yarn Market. As you can clearly see, I did not purchase the two skeins at the same time, so the colors are quite different. I am trying not to care, but I do have to say that sock number 2, the one where the stripes are closer together, is by far my favorite. Very pretty.

Unfortunately the heels are very saggy and it's driving me crazy. I guess it doesn't matter given where I will be wearing these, but I am still kind of depressed. Also, I am concerned about making these for my mom. Her feet are even smaller than mine so if the heels are too big on me they will also be too big on her. :oP

But, even so....they are very pretty.



Next up, the completed Urban Necessity Tam.



Next time hopefully there will be pictures of my sock in progress and the beginnings of an Urban Necessity glove-mitten-thingy.

P.S. The yarn for the tam is KnitPicks Swish Superwash DK in Wisteria.
