Cabled Socks
Here is a closeup of the cabling on my blue cabled socks. Not sure how well you can see it… If you click on it, you will see the bigger picture with more detail. I really love to cable. It is fun, and I think I’m pretty good at it, too. These socks are too small for me but they will fit my friend at work. She wears a size 5.
And below is a picture of both the socks. One is done, the other I am over half way finished. I’ve done the heel flap and turned the heel, and am working on the gusset decreases. LOL, I still can’t believe I understand all this knitting jargon. Never in a million years did I think that me, tomboy I’ve always been, would knit, but I really do love it! The heel turn is the best part. Who ever came up with that? It’s very cool.

After I finish these socks I will continue to knit my afghan I’m doing for collie rescue. Maybe make some money off of that, I hope so. Probably won’t be too hard to at least get back what I spent on yarn. And maybe a bit more for the collies.
I love this yarn. It’s called Lorna’s Laces and I bought it on ebay. I bought another color too and made some other socks. But I think I like this deep rich blue better.

I’ve wanted to learn to knit for a long time. I think it’s so cool how you can make things like that!
