This sock is the first to be finished (no photos of the accomplishment yet!), from the pattern by Rosa Pomar, with Trekking XXL 147 bought here. Although the pattern is very clear and I would recommend it to all Portuguese speakers, I still ended up with 2 tiny holes on the heel (need to perfect my technique) and I’m sure the toe wasn’t supposed to be done like I’ve done it (I’m under the impression I cheated a bit!, but can’t see where I messed up). In any case, it looks lovely (photo later).
It is addictive, I tell you! And now I’m facing such a hard dilemma – explore other patterns! Doesn’t seem like a dilemma at all, I know, but if you consider it takes me ages to finish one sock… I’ll have to wait at least 2 weeks before being able to explore and see the results of a new pattern! So I’m thinking that maybe letting this sock be an only child for a bit is not so bad… or is it? Needles, I need more needles of the same size, so I can have at least 2 patterns going on at the same time!
Olá Joana, nestes dias tenho tentado deixar -te um comentario e naõ tenho conseguido …????
Vejo que as lãs tem-te mantido ocupada !! Abraço
Oh, que estranho. Possivelmente, o wordpress fez greve!
As lãs mantêm-me viciada, é um perigo
Um beijo
I still love these socks. Can’t wait to see the final product. Got to finish those socks for Dad first.
Thanks
True… before all Xmas presents are finished, no socks for me!
