Rainy Day FO's
Pattern: Clandestine by Cookie A. (Free pattern on Knitty!) Yarn: Fall Creek Fibers Powder Mill Sock Color: Green Needles: US 1 1/2 - 2.5 mm Started: September 7, 2010 Completed: September 19, 2010
Note: This yarn is 50% silk (I forgot that when I was knitting and for some reason assumed it contained Bamboo). Either way, both fibers are a bit inelastic and the yarn was a little splitty. The end result, however, is a gorgeous pair of socks. As with any Cookie a. pattern I've ever knit, the end result is a piece of art (due to the pattern, not to me!)
As for Fall Creek Fibers, I joined a three-month yarn club and I would purchase any number of skeins from them. Especially this one. Her hand-blended tea gets a thumbs up from the college boy.
I am off to a movie with the mom, and then packing for the weekend trip to the cabin.

Those socks are amazing! That is not your brainless knitting going on there. I checked out her book from the library and was amazed at her patterns.
Have fun at the cabin!
