This plan is genius. I have motivation to blog and finish things. Which means I can cast on more new things and work through my Ravelry queue. It can't fail!*
For this inaugaural post, I give you Obnoxious Leftover Fish Socks!
These were knit with Phat Fiber samples and leftovers from other sock projects. I started them in December of last year and I have made another sock since.
Lessons learned:
I don't like this heel. It's fiddly, easy to mess up, and the pick up stitches on the side leave bigger holes than any other heel I've ever knit. It also fits funny on me. The first sock I did (left) has a heel nipple - not cool.
Even with an art degree, I made some mistakes with my color combo choices. The best contrast uses cool background colors and warm foreground colors. I also got some great ideas for self striping yarn and colorwork sets.
NO MORE ONE SOCK AT A TIME! I finished sock #1 ages ago and it took me forever to pick the project back up. Never again. Two socks at a time from now on.
Have you finished anything lately? Leave me a comment with a link to your Ravelry project page! I'd love to see it.
