Second Sock Syndrome


Second Sock Syndrome
Originally uploaded by mangokiwi.

I guess I have second sock syndrome often! These three socks are missing their better half. The first one is the basketweave pattern from Sensational Knitted Socks in STR Watermelon Tourmaline (I was stupid and accidentally knit the pattern on the sole of the sock -- they were my first toe-up socks and first short row heel), LL Crazy Stripe Jaywalkers, LL Purple Iris Garland Lace Socks. The STR socks are for my roommate Peiqiu, the Crazy Stripe socks are for my sister (though I think they are going to be a bit long for her, I wanted them to fit perfectly -- oh well!), and the Garland Lace Socks are for me (I'm not totally loving the pattern, but I like the socks a lot still). I'm not allowed to start new socks until I finish these socks!!

You can wear two of them as a pair and just cycle in the third one from time to time, yes?

i am proud to report, two of the socks have been finished and only the watermelon tourmaline socks need to be finished. i'm sort of putting that off, because they are made from the crochet chain cast-on, short row toe, toe up construction method and i dont really like crocheting hence the procrastination.
