Socks for Mom

The first picture is a pair of socks for my mom made from Knit Picks bare merino sock yarn kettle dyed with pink lemonade Kool Aide. These are plain cuff-down socks with foldover cuffs and eye-of-partridge heels.


The second picture is a pair of socks for my mom made from Knit Picks Stroll sock yarn in the discontinued glacier color. The pattern is "Undulting Rib" from Favorite Socks.

Knitting like crazy, but nothing to show

I have been knitting on several projects so far this year.

Socks
2 pairs for my mother completed
1 pair for my mother-in-law completed
1 pair for my grandbaby due in April completed
1 pair for my grandbaby due in April half done

Hat for husband from frogged and leftover sock yarns

Cardigans
2 cardigans for me in the works

In addition, I am working on a pieced receiving blanket for my new grandbaby and a game for my grandsons.

I really do have some pictures of my mother's socks, which I will publish another day.
