On to Van Dyke

We are on to Van Dyke socks now. I got some Araucania Ranco Solid yarn. It's pretty but not what I expected. I expected one solid color yarn, not various hues of the color I thought I chose. I have to call them and see if this runs this way. Even though my order said solid, i don't think this is a solid. But it feels good to me to be knitting again. Four days without any yarn is a no no no no no. Just have it on hand. Now I know, I need it.

Lacy Ribs

These were a bit fun. I used all my left over yarn, it all went together any how and made the Lacy Ribs. I was not really keen on the pattern so, they are okay. I knew I didn't really have a heart into it but just had to try it any with the KAL going on. I love my Nanners the best so far but the are a close second:)

Nanners

I forgot to post my lovely Nanners.I love this pattern for it was easy to do. Lot of row repeats but it's nice and tight. Socks I went up higher on the arch also because for me now, I'm starting them all up higher, I like the look. I also like the look of no pattern in the back of the leg.. Depends also on the pattern I suspect, but for these, they came out great. I'm hopping Mary will love to knit also. She saw mine and said she wants t knit now.

Happy Happy socks for me

I'm so happy to have learned how to knit socks. There are plenty, more, at least 10 more socks to be made in my future. It's a matter of yarn and finding patterns or combining patterns.What is great to know is that I have the slip stitch heel down but I want to do a short row to see how that feels and fits. I know I can find my match, just read the directions and it comes forth
