When my MIL told me about a sock class at her LYS where you make 2 socks (or a pair) at a time, I was soooooo excited!
Sign me up!
After experiencing how long it takes to make just ONE sock (and thinking, "Oh my God, I still have one more to go!"), anything to help speed it up is helpful to me!
Here's what they'll look like when they're done! |
My mom and I met up with my MIL early so we could have some lunch and talk for awhile...
Let me just say that 2 glasses of wine later, we were not very good students and this was quite a mess!
I think my mom had it together the most out of all of us.
My MIL wasn't doing too bad once she got it going.
Once I got it going, I understood it and it works fairly quickly!
I think the hardest thing is keeping everything untangled!
I'm using a random sock yarn that my mom had and LONG size 3 circulars.
I think I'll switch to 16 inch circulars so it's not so crazy!
