RPM … finished!




RPM Finished! 009

Originally uploaded by dormousie.

Look at RPM, being all ballerina-like and flitting around the room. It’s just so happy to be completed!

Fun pattern, fun yarn (Socks that Rock in Lagoon). I did the smooth heel and shaped toe options, something I’ll be sure to let me Hurricane Sock Sister know. I kind of wish that I’d dropped to a US 1 needle, at least for the ribbing. The 1.5 was good, but I think it would have been better with the 1.

Her foot is slightly longer than mine, though, so I’m hoping this works out well! She can rest assured, however, that this sock has been thoroughly examined by Inspector LeMew.

Now on to the next sock … Adelle has clearly done some brainwashing here.

    That yarn turned out really pretty around the heel! I’ve heard good things about StR yarn lately.

    I loved how it turned out … no bigs areas of pooling, lots of variation and shading, and it was very nice to work with. I have another skein of County Clare that I’m going to use for socks for me, and I can’t wait to try it.

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I was hoping these were for me and when my daughter called me at work when she got home from school and told me I had a package from Houston, I just KNEW the RPM Lagoon sock was MINE! Wonderful knitting job - hoping I can make a close mate :)
