Christmas Socks #2

I just finished Christmas socks #2! Only a couple more pairs to go and I'll be done with my sock gifts. That will only leave a couple of smaller things like scarves, hats, arm warmers, and mittens. These socks are knit in Knit Picks Stroll Firecracker Heather. The pattern is called Rosebud Socks from Wendy Johnson's book Toe Up Socks for Everybody.




I attended the Sally Melville workshop this afternoon for the pattern drafting class and it was awesome! Sally is such a great instructor. I got to sit front and center with some of my knitting friends from the local guild and soak it all in. We had a great time. She is such a sweet lady and she loved the pumpkin bread I made for snack time. I know I'm a major dork, but I was totally star-struck!
