Nicaraguan Socks



Eeeek. It's been FOREVER since I actually finished these socks and I never updated or uploaded my pictures to share with the world. Shame on me.

I started these socks when I was on my way to Nicaragua. Then I put them down to work on my thesis. Then teaching ensued. Finally I finished the last one. I love wearing them.

Janelle’s recommendation for the twisted rib is a perfect pattern for socks. This was also the first sock pattern I basically made myself out of my head. It was a toe up construction. It was a great learning process. I know that I will definitely make several modifications with the next pattern. I'm also quit interested in learning how to shape my socks.

P.S. - My friend Janelle just made her first sock pattern. Try it out. I can't wait to knit up my own pair!

I agree. The twisted rib is excellent. The socks are wearing well, too. I'm in love with Felici sock yarn.

The headline reflects. Your stopping look dodges any tune next to a mathematics. "A New York State of Mind in Wisconsin" perfects the remainder. "A New York State of Mind in Wisconsin" fusses.
