Turned the first heel on my daughter’s Valentine’s Day socks. It’s an eye of partridge stitch on the back, reinforced with wool/nylon thread. Hopefully these won’t wear through as fast. They’re going to be murder to darn. She seems fine with store bought holiday-themed socks, so I’m going to ply her with those so she won’t want to wear these every day. I hope.
These socks are going on the back burner now as I plow ahead on the Jayne hat line. I want to get back ahead of the curve. A very nice woman just ordered enough hats for everybody in her Browncoat family, including toddlers. They’re for Christmas photos for this coming year. I may have to insist on being on her Christmas card list, because that sounds awesome.
I should really put up a Jayne hat gallery at some point. There are some stellar pics that really should be shared. Today’s favorite: halfway down on this page. Heh.

Those socks are AWESOME. Don’t let her wear them out like the Christmas socks! Not so soon! They’re too, too, too AWESOME! Every OTHER day, please. =P

Whoa! High praise from the sock queen! Thanks!

These are coming out really cute.
Are you useing a variegated pink and then working in all of the purple? It’s kind of hard to tell from my unknowledgeable eye!
I want to do socks still! Is it about 1 sock per 50 gram ball? If I order yarn here soon I don’t want to order too little.
I’d be interested in seeing how the inside looks, too. I’m curious.
Also, do you have a tutorial on how to insert lifelines you could share? I really need to learn how to do this correctly lol.
