There hasn’t been a tonne of knitting time these past few days, but when I have been clicking the needles, it’s been on Dave’s Hamilton sock (oh poor neglected poncho, I’ll give you some love soon.)
As you can see by the picture on the left, the first sock is done. And it’s got the most gorgeous texture – all sturdy columns and bold diamonds.
The only difference between this and the ladies’ version is an extra column of garter rib.
Dave is back to work this week (after the holiday break.). And I’m going to use those evenings to finally get the patterns together for release. You all deserve to make some Hamilton socks too!
If all goes as planned, I could have them together by the end of the month. Of course, that could be pushing it, so I’m giving myself a deadline of the end of February.Until then… lets just admire all those lovely stitches!
In the photo, the diamonds kind of look like bow ties. A very handsome sock for sure.

I’ve been having sock problems recently, since I cannot find any that fit me well. Guess I should think about knitting my own, then problem solved!
