Bathing Socks
Aug. 3rd, 2023 02:23 pmI've gone as far as I can with the bathing socks. I am officially out of the blue yarn of the current dye lot. I'm saving the old yarn for the upper part of the trunks since they'll be hidden under the skirt of the bathing suit.
I finished the first sock on Monday before I even got on the plane. These socks are so much faster than either of my other current knitting projects - they start at 80 st/row while the Eleonora stockings started at 168 st/row and are still around 100 st/row at the ankle and the 1902 vest is 200 st/row. The bathing socks will actually come in at about 3 balls of yarn instead of 4 so I'm glad I got as far as I did before my coupon ordering window opens. I am trying really hard not to have a yarn stash.
