Socks in all stages

 I had started this post yesterday with the thought of doing it on the gardening. That has mainly what I’ve been up to these past couple weeks. 

But then I went into the studio because I was going to work on getting the snowman wallhanging finished (spoiler alert: didn’t) ……Well I got sidetracked. I had this organizing bug hit me and I started cleaning up the studio and came across a bunch of knitted WIP’s. So then I thought, I’m going to share my WIP’s because I believe a lot of us have the same issue. Which I definitely have. That is too start a project and not finish it by before I start a new one.  So I took a picture of the basket with all my sock WIP’s.

 Now mind you this is only my socks. I have many other whips that I am not including because I’m categorizing my projects. So here are the WIP’s I have in the basket. 

ALL 9 OF THEM 

Now these WIP’s come in all stages. 

From the planning stage to being almost completed, like needing the toes sewn together.

This pair of socks is a good example of "why in the heck did I not finish the last step"

This pair was a Christmas gift from my eldest daughter, a year long sock of the month club. Been fun and long having a gift each month.

This next pair was from Christmas 2020. An advent skien which each day you knit a strip up until Christmas Day.  I was going through chemo at that time and didn't want to try making the heel, my concentration was fuzzy. 

My plan is to do an afterthought heel. Have never done one before and had put it off. Once I do these, they'll be done. 

I started this pair in June of 2020, the oldest WIP.

Just started the heel on the second sock. I think I'm starting to see a pattern, THE HEEL.....

I do have had issues with heels, not my favorite part. Keep trying different ways to make them. Can't say I have yet from a favorite one.

Not sure when I started these but I think it might of been last year..

Oh looky..... I stopped again at the heel on the second sock, go figure.

Will be such a pretty fall pair to wear.

I love this color and look for to wearing them. No pattern, my own making but base on a pattern I'd seen. Tried a different heel on this pair. Like it better than most styles I tried.

This pair is another one of the sock of the month club.

Colors are so bright and cheery. This is the first pair of shorties I have knitted.

So I just had to to start another pair of shorties....

This is one of Summer Lee's patterns. It is made from scraps leftover from other projects. I fun pair to knit.

This next two patterns I fell in love with.

they are done in color work. only barely started the first one and the others just prep and ready to start.

 

So that is my 9 sock WIP's.   

When I gather some of the other WIP's,  I'll be sharing those too.

Till next time
