I heaved a huge sigh of relief at finishing sock #2 today. I'm not sure I'll ever make another pair. I started sock #1 in the fall, finished in January and then started on sock #2, using 4 size 2 needles. I love the yarn (Patons sock yarn), but I would rather not have to think so hard as I'm knitting. I like to finish sooner than every six months (or more!).
Today I cast on 104 stitches onto size 7 needles to make a hat, and I'm much happier with that. Sure, I'll have to think while shaping the top of the head, but otherwise, I am free. I'm using Brava Speckled yarn from Knit Picks (color - cake pop), and it's working out really cute. This will be for "Bags of Love," for kids in foster care. I have three more skeins of the speckled yarn that should keep me busy all summer.
