I FINISHED THE NEVER ENDING SOCKS!

I started these sock blank socks way back here.  Ok, I must give myself credit that these were my purse knitting socks and never got knit on for much at a time.  AND I have knit a lot of other things in the same timeframe.  But in the last few days I have just went gung-ho on them and it felt as though they would never end.

I bought this sock blank back at the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival a year ago.  I dyed them myself last fall.

This is just a generic sock pattern, toe up, and shoot, I just realized I took no photos of the back.  I did a slip-stitch mock seam in the back that I increased on either side of in order to increase for my calves.  It looks pretty hot, not I am bummed.  Sad.

Well, not too much exciting yarn or pattern wise to talk about.  I guess you will just have to enjoy another photo.

You spin me right round, baby.

Give me a break, ok?
