A Bit 'o Sock Knitting

I've been so busy trying to get my Christmas knitting finished that I've been neglecting my sock knitting terribly!

Yesterday I had to attend a meeting out-of-town and was lucky enough to be a passenger instead of a driver. It was a little over an hour away, so I managed to get in a couple of hours of sock knitting time. *YAY!*

I already had two pairs of socks on needles, but was nearly to the heel on both of them. I didn't want to have to carry a pattern on the trip, so Monday evening I cast on yet another pair of "plain vanilla" socks using the yummy yarn I won in Pretty Knitty's contest back in August. They're striping up beautifully, and though I didn't get a LOT of knitting done on them, I'm happy that I had a comfortable little project to help pass the traveling time.
