I have conquered the Size 1 needles!

Lookee! It’s Conwy from Knitting on the Road by Nancy Bush. It’s got a twining rib pattern that looks like a little braid that runs down each rib.

My LYS had all sock yarn on sale last month, so I splurged and got some Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock yarn. I wish the color was a little more uniform, but overall I really like it.

Knitting with the tiny yarn and needles isn’t nearly as hard as I thought it would be!

  1. Ok, your blog hates me. It will never remember my email info. Love the color. I hope I can become half the knitter you are. I just get so frustrated and then end up pulling it all out after awhile. I need to realize that it’s supposed to be fun, But I get so intense about it and that takes all the fun out of it. I am by nature a really high-strung person and overly sensitive so if I mess up at something it makes me mad at that thing. I need to just relax breath and have fun. I need a knitting mantra.

  2. I have major second sock syndrome with my size 1 pair – I can’t get started on the 2nd one. Argh… yours looks really great. Love the way the colors are working up on there.
