As you can see I've turned the heel on my sock. I used the Fish Lips Kiss heel for the first time and WOW I love it! Very simple to work and so neat looking. Plus it fits well too which is always useful lol
I think I'm a convert! If any of you are thinking of trying it then I'd highly recommend it. It's a kind of short row heel but slightly different technique to what I've done before.
Linking up with Ginny's Yarn Along. I've had a busy day catching the bus into town with the children for a certain young man's birthday. Mr Soaring Sheep is working away so we're going to celebrate his birthday properly on Friday. Today we went on the bus, had fast food for lunch, visited the book shop and the sweet shop and had a walk by the river. Lovely :-)
I'm going to enjoy having a cold drink and a chance to put my feet up for a bit :)
The back of your cardigan is terrific. I like how the upper isn't boring stockinette. You've made tremendous progress.
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater design and color. The sock is pretty cool too. ;-) I have never knit socks, so I'm curious to give it a try. I watched my sister work on one last year, and it piqued my interest at the time. Hmmm.... it just may be in my near future.
ReplyDeleteCute WIPS! I have made little progress on my WIPS this week too. Oh well, there is always next week.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the stripey socks!
