Pair 24 finished. This is Faceted Rib socks from The Little Box of Socks. I didn't quite make it halfway, but I made more socks than I would have without the challenge. I am signed up for PPIII :)

Pair 22 finally done. That took forever...or at least it seemed to. I don't quire recall when I started these and of course I forgot to write it down. The pattern is Lacy Mock Cable Socks. I had started a pair of plain toe up socks when I fell in love with the pattern after finishing a pair of socks for a friend in this pattern. The yarn is KnitPicks Felici in the Hummingbird colorway. Onward to pair 23 :)

Pairs 16 through 21. These were a hoot to make. I got the pattern from "Last Minute Knitted Gifts". I just altered the pattern a little bit and added a crochet chain and turned a pair into a book thong. These were Christmas gifts.

Pair 15 finally finished. Well, they've been done for a while, but with all the Christmas knitting, I just didn't have time to take a pic and get it uploaded.

Pair 13 finished at 1:40 this morning. My hubby really likes the socks I make for him. I've decided to drag Firebird out to see if I can get them done. I'm almost to the heel on sock 2.

Pair 11 done. This is Lacy Mock Cables from island of misfit patterns. I love this pattern as it is easily adapted to any size sock that's evenly divisible by 4.

Whew! Another pair done. I know it's been a couple of weeks, but I had to take care of a hand injury. In the mean time, I did finish some quilt tops. This is pair 9 which I finished yesterday evening. Onward to the next pair :)

Pair 8. Finally Done. This pair started out in the little shells pattern from Sensational Knitted Socks but ended up way too tight. So I raveled and just did plain stockinette.

Finally have pair 7 done. Whew! These were the neverending socks. I worked cuff down and all my measurements were off and I ended up redoing the toe. The pattern is Chevron from Sensational Knitted Socks by Charlene Schurch.

Yeah!!! Pair 6 done. Now I can get busy on pair 7 over the weekend. This is Lacy Mock Cable Socks by Kat. Very easy pattern to knit. I altered the pattern by knitting toe up and doing a short row heel instead of a heel flap. Onward to pair 7.

Pair 5 done and recorded in my little book. This is the fastest I've ever made adult sizes socks with regular sock yarn on small needles. I'm amazed. Now I can get busy on the next pair. Maybe I'll have the same kind of luck and get them done really fast. :)

I gave myself a break from adult socks and made this pair of baby socks. The pattern is Better Than Booties Baby Socks by Ann Budd. I loved making these. All I can do is giggle at their size. :) Now all my girlfriend's daughter needs to do is get busy makin' teh babeh. This is pair 4.

Pair 2 of 52 is done. These were a pair in progress although I did have to redo the toe in the first sock. They came out a little too short so I added a few extra rows before starting the decreases. Onward to pair 3 :)

I finished my first pair for the plunge. I started yesterday and just finished. I used Wool-Ease by Lion Brand. My husband loves socks made from this yarn. Now I can concentrate on some sock wips.
