Brown Opal Socks

My third pair for plunge:

Basic stockinette stitch socks, 72 sts, garter heel
Opal Abo color 2065, factory test color, purchased from Marianne's Opalwolle
size: man's medium/large
2.75mm DPNs

I've really enjoyed the plunge so far. I'm a single mom and staying home with children now I've finished my studies, so I have lots of time to knit and I feel I'm really making a dent in my huge sock yarn stash! This pair will be Christmas gift for some relative, I haven't yet decided who.

Waterfall

Waterfall by Babs Austermann (Woolgirl sock club 2007)
Posh Yarn Emily, color Loot
2.75mm DPNs

This is my first finished pair. A stash pattern and stash yarn :) Pattern was originally intended to go with Miss Babs sportweight yarn, but lace pattern was lost in variegated yarn. It looks much nicer with solid.

I've winded yarn for my next pair and will cast on later today. The pattern is May Day socks by Anni Design, available here.

I'm going to work with these


The big plastic containers hold my yarn stash. Most of it is sock yarn, and my goal for plunge is to knit socks from stash until I run out. (Since I'm not renewing my sock club, I will be able to purchase yarn for a few pairs but not many...)

I haven't decided yet which will be my first pair. Probably Nancy Bush's New England socks from Knitting on the Road in white Regia Silk, but my mind changes almost daily. Rather than finishing one pair in a week, I'm trying to finish four pairs in a month. Simple stockinette stitch socks take about four days but patterned socks aren't as quick to knit.

To even things out (and it will be needed, because I have two Tsock Tsarina kits waiting!) I'm going to knit socks for my children.
