I starting knitting these socks while I was in Philly a few weeks ago. I was sitting on a bench in front of the Liberty Bell and Sarah and I were enjoying the view. Plain socks were just the ticket for enjoying the day.
This is the first object I have ever knit from my own handspun. I have to say I am hooked! I started the Diamond Fantasy Shawl last week with some other handspun.
Pics of that hopefully coming soon!!

They came out absolutely beautiful. I LOVE the striping!! You rock. Now I have to go spin something!
They look so awesome! Love the striping. The handspun looks great! Do you know how much yardage you used?
Those are lovely! I have high hopes this year of being able to spin yarn that's thin enough to knit sicks with.
So so pretty. I think the yarn and the socks turned out very well!
those are absolutely stunning!
