Aaand another pair of socks finished. After the Bayerische, these seemed to fly off the needles. The pattern is wonderful and looks much more complicated than it really is to knit. And the fit is marvelous.

Pattern: The Firestarter (Ravelry) by Yarnissima

Yarn: Hot Socks Laola (75% superwash wool/25% polyamide) in colorway #655

Needles: 2.5 mm (foot) and 3.0 mm (leg) circulars

Mods: Turkish cast-on instead of the suggested provisional cast on and short-row toe; increased one extra stitch at each side for calf shaping; modified Russian bind-off instead of the suggested one

These are probably the best-fitting socks I've ever made. The foot is nice and snug, the heel is amazing, and the ribbing on the cuff is wonderfully stretchy.

And then something that's not socks: Mystic Light (ravelry) mystery shawl by Anna Dalvi in The Knittery 4ply Merino Cashmere Sock (60% merino/20% cashmere/20% nylon, colorway "Midnight")

With just 3 days to spare, I managed to finish my last pair for Summer of Socks 2007: the Radioactive Jaywalkers!

Pattern: Jaywalker (ravelry) by Grumperina from September 2005 MagKnits

Yarn: 2 x 50g of Novita Wool (100% merino)

Needles: 3.0 mm 80 cm aluminum circular needle

Mods: Knitted toe-up using sport/DK weight yarn in * k-f/b, k6, dd, k6, k-f/b * pattern (34 sts in instep, 28 sts in sole). Revisited Widdershins heel with the following numbers: B28, C44, D12, E20, F8. (They'll make sense when you read the instructions. :) Increase to 34 sts on the heel/back needle, knit cuff in modded stitch pattern.

Other: Sixth and final pair for Summer of Socks 2007, Sockdown: Ravelry September 2007 challenge (Grumperina or toe-up)

New month, new knitalong and new projects!

August 1st was the kick-off date for Sockdown: Ravelry. I cast on for Zephyr Socks in Regia Cotton Jacquard Color. I'm really liking the stitch pattern: it's fast, easy and the resulting effect is really interesting. No wonder the same stitch pattern has been used in several other sock patterns.

I'm also liking the yarn. I've never used sock yarn that has cotton it it before, but I'm finding it very smooth and sturdy to work with. I was a bit worried that the socks wouldn't fit since you only cast on 54 sts for the Zephyrs. But the yarn is slightly thicker than the ones I've used before so no problem there. That and the lace pattern is stretchy. The only complaint I have is that the combination of the yarn and lace pattern makes to socks look a bit busy. It'd be better in solids or subtly variegated colors.

I also cast on for another project I've been ogling and drooling over for months now: a gorgeous Monarch of the Glen inspired MacPalmikkoneule cabled cardigan (ravelry). I want to wear this when the weather gets cool in the fall so I figure I'd better start working on it already. The pattern is written for flat knitting but I'm working the fronts and back in one piece. And that of course means that one row is miles long. So far, I've barely made it past the ribbing so nothing much to show yet.
