Quick Knit

These were a quick knit. Once I learned how to read. . . . I started them 4 different times. First time, I couldn't remember the cast on. Second time, I dropped a stitch. Third time, it just wasn't big enough. Fourth time's a charm? Pattern: Seduction by Ann Budd. Yarn: Cherry Tree Hill; gift from a friend. The Rest: Needles, US1s, magic loop, top down, both at the same time. Model: a very scared Dudley Dog. He did NOT like having the sock blockers leaning on him. Verdict: Lovely pattern. Will most likely knit it again.

  5. The socks look absolutely squishy! Do you find them as addictive to knit as I do? I love the color. And Dudley dog was an absolute sport about posing for you! Good Boy!
