Finishing = new project?
I'm proud to report I've finished all the Lizard Ridge Afghan squares.
While I deal with getting them all sewn together and and putting the edging on, you won't blame me for starting a new project, will you? (Yes, I know, I have two sweaters that need attention. Shut up.)
After I got such great ideas from my last post on Matt's socks, I couldn't resist! Let me introduce to you the Retro Rib socks suggested by Ms. Gray la Gran. The pattern is from an old issue of Interweave Knits (W04), but my LYS had a copy in stock so I just bought it. I like trying out new stitch patterns when I knit socks, but sometimes I need a little hand-holding through the heel section.
Anyway, isn't it turning out pretty? This is STR mediumweight in Obsidian (one of their "watercolor wave," or semi-solid colors).

oh! it looks GREAT! seeing it knitted up makes me want to knit another pair for myself ... but, i don't have as many lizard ridge squares knitted as you, and i too have two sweaters on the needles ... and let's not forget all the poor sock orphans ....
that issue of IK has some goodies in there. did you see the pretty leafy lacy socks?

Congrats! I think you're going to miss making those squares, though! (I also think I need to take some sock lessons from you - pretty please?)

Those socks are great and the color is lovely. Actually, I really like the comforter in the background too!
