My New Sock Yarn

I am not sure how many read this blog..I doubt to many..~smile~ but if anyone here has been praying for me..your prayers have been answered. I still have my dentist appointment for the 21st but the medicine has finally kicked in and I feel so much better..so thank you if you have been praying..

I did work on my sock yesterday not much because I had way to much cleaning to do...the house wasn't on my to do list last week. I did manage to get most of the top of the foot done..hopefully I can finish that today. The picture above is the sock yarn that I bought on Friday it was on sale so I thought I would try it...it looks a little thinner than the yarn I am using now. I am hoping to make my daughters each a pair of socks out of this yarn.....

My Finished Two Needle Sock ** Flat Sock Knitting** " New Knitter"

My Finished Two Needle Sock **Flat Sock Knitting** " New Knitter"

I know two posts in one day??....but I had to share my finished sock. I can't believe it actually looks like a sock and feels like a sock..~smile~

I finished the bottom of the foot and then shaped the heel by: decreasing by knitting 2 stitches together at the beginning and the end of each row until 12 stitches remain. I then immediately began increasing one stitch at the beginning and end of each row until the stitch count is back until 24.....I then binded off and stitched the ribbing and all angles..heel and toe.

I used Vanna's Glamour yarn color Topaz it is a very forgiving yarn...so don't look to close there are a few mistakes..~smile~

I am excited about making my second sock....although I might take a small break and work on a wallet that I have been wanting to make..~smile~ I look forward to wearing both of my socks this winter~~~smile~~

Still Working On My Two Needle Sock " Flat Knitting" Yarn Along 10

Still Working On My Two Needle Sock  " Flat Knitting"

Today is Ginny's Yarn Along and I am excited to share my progress with you . I have been working on my two needle sock and it has been a lot easier than I thought it would be...remember I am a very new knitter.

These are the steps I have done so far...

1. I casted on 50 stitches

2. I did the ribbed stitch (knit 2 purled 2) until it reached 7 inches long

3.I binded off the first 15 stitches then knitted 24 and binded off the last 15 (this looks kind of weird at first )

4. The 24 stitches will be the top of the foot I knitted until it reached 7 inches long

5. I then started to decrease by knitting 2 stitches together at the beginning and end of each row until 14 stitches remained. I then immediately began increasing 1 stitch at the beginning and end of each row until your stitch count in back to 24.

6. I then continued to work on the 24 stitches until it reaches 7 inches long. (the top of the foot)

This is where I am at working on the bottom of the foot of my sock. I hope to have it finished by next knit along but with the holiday weekend it might take me a little longer.

I hope you have a blessed day reader,
