Oldest UFO socks finished




I can't really be sure when I actually started this pair of socks. The copyright on the pattern is 2003, and I believe that it was in the early part of that year. I started these in a class at The Sheepy Yarn Shoppe. I will offer a bit of advice. When you stop working on a project, make lots of notes. Or better yet, make notes as you go along, so if you stop working on it you will have a clue where you are. It took my a great deal of time to figure out where I was in the pattern! Did I learn by this mistake? Only time will tell...

The color in the picture isn't really true, they are actually a clear red.

Nice pattern! Traveling stitches and cable combo== reminds me of a mini-version of the gorgeous Am Kamin sweater! (from "New Style of Heirloom Knitting")

Thanks. The pattern is call Love of Life and was designed by Nancy McElmurry. I took a sock class from her-don't know if the pattern was ever published for purchase.
