A few minute ago I finished and photographed my "Summer Lovin'" socks! I'm very pleased with the way they turned out. The fit is really good; they're very comfortable!
For the first time, I used Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-Off, and it's wonderful! I found a video on You Tube of a demonstration of this bind-off by Cat Bordhi. If, like me, you're a more visual learner, click here to see the video.
Several "firsts" are accomplished by the completion of this pair of socks:
- First time I've knitted the "Summer Lovin'" pattern.
- First time I've used Sockotta yarn.
- First time I've used Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind-Off.
- First pair of socks I've completed after starting the 10kH project.
And on that happy note, I'm headed for bed. *LOL*
You and I must be connected.... I just cast off and posted my first pair of socks of the 10k project too. I'm gonna try that cast off on my next pair.
