2 Circs?

Has anyone out there modified the pattern for 2 circs yet? I am a relatively new sock knitter, and I am a little afraid that I will mess things all up if I simply try to divide all the stitches by 2 instead of by 3 or 4 for dpns. If someone has already converted the pattern, will you tell me what you did? Thanks for you help! Cindy S-- knitsabouttime.blogspot.com

My new Favorite Socks!

I didn't do the lace pattern, only a simple 5x2 rib for the cuff. I love this yarn! I loved it soooo much that I went to buy the last 2 skeins of the Raspberry Cane colorway ;) I plan on making knee highs.... Thank you Miss Babs!

So Much Fun

Hot off the press!

Here they are - hot off the press! Waterfall socks complete! I love the colors! See my blog for how well they match my one pair of Keen sandals.....KnittingKris.

I used #3 Addi turbo needles, and completed the pattern using the Magic Loop method. I will try to post any changes/modifications that I did at a later date. I did knit the stockinette rows, and I did 4 lace repeats before knitting the heel flap. I had a tiny/small ball of yarn left over. But I definitely wasn't sweating about the yarn amount, or if I'd have enough or not! I have size 7 feet, but I knit my socks to 7 inches before starting the toe decreases (just more comfy for me). I won't talk about my gauge, because I can't remember what it was right now (I did measure it though), and the socks are not in front of me to measure. I was a little "under" gauge, but these socks would have been too big for me, if I would have stuck with the suggested gauge on the pattern!

PS - these are my first "lace" socks! :)

Pair of socks for my daughter

I am a bad sock club member...... I just could not get the pattern to work to fit me so my daughter has just said after about the 5th attempt... "Mom, Just make me a pair since it's not working out for you." So, that is what I did. These are a 1x1 rib for the cuff and 2x2 for the leg of the sock; after the gusset I went back to the 2x2 rib all around the foot so that they would not twist around her foot and then into the toe decreases. I love the yarn and love the way the socks feel on my hands and my daughter is also in love with them and doesn't want to take them off. But, she does because it's just to warm yet to wear them. I can't wait for the next shipment to see if I might just be able to get the next pattern to work. I do love all the finished socks pictures. So, in the meantime I will knit my yarn from chewy spaghetti's holiday sock club while I wait for shipment number 2.

these socks are so great

Oh my goodness!! My club package arrived today - don't ask - Canada Post must have some knitting fans working at the border!

I can't believe how gorgeous this yarn is, and all the goodies too... I haven't been so excited about a sock club in a long while, thanks so much Jen.

I have finished all my "obligation" socks and this one is on the needles!
