Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

Im currently in something of a sock rut! They have been on the needles for AGES!!! I was wondering if anyone wanted a semi knitalong to help encourage me to get these finished?
It doesnt matter what pattern you are working on… just that it is making slow progress!

Count me in, I have 3 pairs OTN that I would like to finish soon but have just lost my mojo with them

One pair are plain, on the 2nd sock just up to picking up the gusset stitches.

One pair are Tumbling Block socks, just on the heel flap of the 2nd.

Just about to cast on the 2nd of a pair of Waving Lace socks from 25 Favorite socks!

Come on Laura, you can do it :D

I’ve got two pairs to finish, one pair is about 2 inches done (the cuff) and the other is yet to be started… but I know that as soon as I do start them I’ll find something else to distract myself :(

Count me in!

I feel better already knowing that someone else is in the same position as me! I’m going to dig them out tonight and get them restarted! Let’s get some progress pics posted to keep our sock-morale up!

Progress report!!
I figure that by adding a pic I would be making some kind of commitment to finishing this sock… or at the very least showing improvement! I wonder if there will be any noticeable difference after the weekend?!

Ha ha!!! You lot and your socks makes me laugh, I have a vision of people sat in the evening knitting all these wildly colourful socks!! Welldone, might start some just to join in.xx

Here are my progress pics:

I only have half a sock left on these now!

Sorry they are links but I’m not sure how to work pics here

Hope your getting along with you socks, im looking into it....umm along with the other bits I’ve started!!

Annoyingly, I had to frog my pretty sock the other day :(

I’d got about two or three inches into the ribbing and all was well when I stopped paying attention and accidentally dropped a stitch off the needle. In trying to pick it up again I just managed to scruff up the yarn and get it all tangled together to the point that it was un-saveable (if that’s a word?). Still, at least it’s one less project to worry about I suppose!

Ohno, thats awfull, that is the problem with rib it is very difficult to pick up, as it needs tobe nice & neat! Hope you didnt waste too much yarn!! xx

Noo, luckily I was about to frog it all so have only lost about a metre or so, I think (the bit around the tangle!)

And here are mine
I’ve actually done a bit more since the pic… damn big feet

Check you out! That’s mega! Bet you wish you had smaller feet tho!

Oli!! Welldone, that is such neat knitting! Your tension is perfect!!Great colour too!. Atleast you wont blow over in the wind with big feet!!!xx

that is one way of seeing it

Nearly there… *phew*

How you all getting on?
