I finally finished the pair of travel socks I’ve been working on for the past 2ish years! I even had them while on our honeymoon in Niagara Falls – see:
and now they’re done!
Project Details:
Pattern Name: No name, just toe-up socks with a short-row heel
Yarn: Handspun by me – it started as Spunky Eclectic fiber. Rolling Hills colorway, I think? Possibly BFL?
Needle Size: Size 1 Knitpicks Circs
Time Knit: Started in 2010, finished October 14, 2012
I’ll be wearing these at Rhinebeck along with my Effortless! (uh oh I need photos of that, too)

And about time, too… (grin)
(Like I can talk. It takes me something like half a year to knit a pair of socks!)
Beautiful job! That gives me hope for my longer-lived projects.
(also Yay! Rhinebeck!)

Thank you, Jessalu! I am so grateful I’m not the only one who does that. Of course, I don’t have a good excuse of getting married and having a honeymoon, but I do have sock on the needles that are 2 years old;-p
