Jaywalkers

Whitetail.jpg

Pattern: Jaywalker socks from Magknits by the fabulous Grumperina

Yarn: Socks That Rock in the Blarney Stone colorway

Needles: Addi turbo 1's

Started: Approximately Jan 1, 2006

Finished: Feb 9, 2006

Comments: This pair of socks was knit on 9 plane flights and in a total of 6 states, and the photo above was in a 7th state (from where we went snowboarding today). I have a massive post coming to help trace their journey, but that will wait, and the contest ends in just two days. These socks fit quite closely (although I'm glad that I went down to the smaller size) and the fabric is stiffer than the pair that I knitted on 2's (socks done; photo yet to come). They're getting more comfortable as I wear them. I think it's safe to say that they'll become standards in the hand knit sock drawer!
