Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

Lush, lush and thrice lush! You are so nearly finished- nice one! I wish I could report some progress, sadly all my weekend knitting has been projects other than socks! 

Jominx, what gorgeous socks you are making. The thought of wearing them must spur you on a little bit. I can’t decide which of the 3 pairs I prefer, they are all fab.
To upload pictures click post reply rather than fast reply, below the message box there is a blank space with browse beside, click on that, or paste the ref from your photobucket into the space. I had to shrink my piccies to allow for the smaller file space allowed, but that only took a few secs, either on photobucket, or on your pc.

Tada!!!
I’m all done… well, still 1 to go for the pair but I’m happy wearing odd socks right now

Oli

That is awesome!Feels great wearing handmade socks huh?
I really must finish mine.....

Seeing your socks makes me want to make mine now Oli! Still waiting for the yarn to arrive though, that’s what I get for ordering from America… Grr *impatient*

Thanks for the compliments Suse, I just adore making socks :D

Thanks for the advise on the pictures, I will try to edit my post.

How is everyone getting along? I must admit that instead of finishing the pairs pictured, I cast on another pair I know I am very naughty but I really wanted to try the pattern. So I know have these to finish too

I am still having problems linking pictures from Flickr, I followed your advice Suse but they are just not showing up

Hey Jo,
What problem do you have with flickr?
Let me know and I’ll give you a hand

Oli

Thanks Oli, I just can’t seem to get my pics to show up. Is there a certain code I need to use, I am bit of a technophobe LOL

All done!
It was something I had to change something on my side

You should see the [img] button now when you reply to posts.

Wow that sock yarn looks great, Jominx! What is it?

Thanks so much Oli, I thought I was going mad LOL

Sophie, the yarn is Colinette Jitterbug in Popsicle, it is sooo bright, I wasn’t too sure about it at first but I really love it now I have knitted some more. I am so glad I didn’t frog it after 2 inches :-D

Jitterbug is just divine! I used it for making the Monkey socks and for the Lorelei socks I designed. It feels fab to knit with and wear and the colours are really awesome! Is this your sock yarn of choice?

This is the first socks I have used it for, although I have recently used it for a Chevron scarf:

I love it, it is really lovely to knit, I have a huge sock yarn stash and I am slowly trying to try all of the yarns but I have 3 more skeins of Jitterbug and can’t wait to knit it up

i want to knit socks but never used double pointed needles!!

The new mag has a pattern for socks on two needles, you could try that.
