I finished a pair of socks this week too. This is some lovely variegated 100% wool yarn I got at Joann Fabrics of all places! I made them with 3 skeins but of course I bought 4, as well as 4 of a blue/grey colorway. Oh well. I'm sure I can use the leftovers for something. It is a lovely 2 ply of irregular thick and thin singles. It looks very homespun while it knits up and was just a pleasure to work with! These were knit ankle down (cuff 48 stitches) on size US 6 double pointed needles.

These are lovely TV/bed socks and will be cozy and warm...but did I mention that I turned my air on once already this week? I'm going to have to put these away for a few months before I'll get to enjoy them!
