Another UFO bites the dust

Posted in blogging on Jun 20th, 2005

Yesterday I finished a sock for my daughter . . . the same sock that has been sitting sans needles, since my (then) 2yo pulled them all out, for five months. I wrote about it and posted a pic in my blog here, then the next day my son pulled out the needles. I was so upset I threw it onto the hall table and there it sat.

Yesterday, I finllay picked it up, put it back onto the needles and finished it. Last night I started the 2nd sock and got half way thru the gusset. This morning I woke up an dfinished the 2nd sock! I am so thrilled, another project finished and another skein of yarn out of my stash!

I pulled the Quatro Clapotis off the needles and then I went ahead and dropped the stitches, 7 of them, and blocked it a bit. I love the way it looked, the color is very nice and it has some nice drape to it (from what I can tell).

I was reading through The Twisted Sisters Sock Workbook and I may not have needed to rip it out after all. It says turning your work clockwise instead of counter clockwise, which I do, minimizes the yarn twisting back onto its self. Shoot, who knew?

Looks like after I finish the Mountain Goat Clapotis I may have to start working on the Quatro one again.
