Impossible Dream Knitting
Wed Oct 18 2006


I have been reading different knitting blogs lately and ran across this one. Now I know what the ultimate hand knitted sock LOOKS like.

I wonder if I will ever reach into this stratospheric knitting realm?

Ultimate Socks

Impressive eh?

    Very pretty indeed. I wonder if they're comfortable or would they be better lined?

    Oh, the lovely Pomatomus socks!! I love those, they've been on my to-do dream list for some time. :o) You can do it, I'm sure you can!

    RYC: nicotine is terrible to get out of anything. Every couple of weeks I have to wash my bathroom ceiling due to nicotine bleed-through from the former owner. I haven't primed and painted it because we're moving the bath across the hall but it just grosses me out! It looks like amber beads hanging from the ceiling when I get out of the shower even with the fart fan on *sigh*

    Those socks are absolutely beautiful!! They remind me of Aran Island sweaters where every weave represents a different family.

    RYN: I couldn't do lace either, once, but now I manage fairly well. So maybe you're not ready for the sock yet but there is absolutely NO REASON to think you wouldn't ever be able to do it. Give it a little while and then go for it. Forget you're making a sock and try the pattern. I think you can do it. Honest.
