After casting off Dave’s socks, I still didn’t have the needle for Paisley’s cardigan yet, so I decided to focus on getting on a new pair of socks on the needles. I have a few pairs planned as Christmas gifts, but they dont actually have to be done by Christmas, so I decided put them off for a little while longer and cast on a pair for myself

I haven’t knit myself much this year – just a poncho (which I ended up giving away,) and a pair of fingerless gloves. I think I deserve a little something.
The yarn is more Kroy – this time Kroy FX in “Seashell Colours). The pattern is Winters Frost – a freebie that I think pairs quite nicely with the yarn!
I do have to set this aside though… Paisley’s cardigan is calling.
What a coincidence. I’ll be starting that same pattern tomorrow to celebrate Winter Solstice.

I really like what you have knit on the first sock! Looks like it is going to be a beautiful pair of socks. Hopefully, they will be for you and not be given away.

That is a beautiful sock! Love both the color and the pattern. I just saved it to my library to print out later. Thanks for the link. I really need to take link lessons from someone. I tried to put one in my post last night for the headphones and failed. Oh well.
Have fun knitting!
Blessings,
Betsy

It’s lovely! Since I finished the new baby knits everything on my needles is for me. Sadly the USPS has my package stuck in MD when I mailed it on the 14th. If they loose all my baby knits and quilts I will be mighty PO’d. Daughter’s masks are all MIA also. Grrrr…..

That pattern is perfect for the yarn. I had to put it in my queue right away, even though I haven’t been interested in socks for awhile.

My sock drawer is boring, compared to what you have made for yourself!

Oh, what a pretty yarn color and a bit of lace-knitting perfection!
