Well, our Horcrux sock adventure is over. I completed the last sock last night. They are a little small but I like my socks to be snug but I probably should have added a few more rounds. I like them though. They were the first pair I started for Summer of Socks 2007. They were started June 21, 2007 and finished July 19, 2007. I used Fleece Artist Tiger yarn. It was a little splitty but not too incredibly bad
Of course I had to start another pair. I have decided I do better with two pairs on the needles at a time. If I don't want to work on one I work on the other. I started the Victorian Lace Six Sox today. I am way behind but at least I got this pair started before the two months were over this time. This pair has also confirmed for me that I don't like bamboo needles. I knit too tightly and the tips just are sharp enough. I am off to work on my socks.
Happy Knitting

Those are some shiny and lethal lookin' needles. They must be Knitpicks.
Congratulations on finishing those socks!! They look great. I love the colors! I like the idea of having two socks on the needles for variety. Think I'll cast on another pair tonight!! :-)
Yeah!! Mine went through the wash yet again today. I wear them all the time.
I enjoyed knitting the Horcrux Socks and will probably knit a second pair, too!
