Socks!

When I was still a newish knitter, I saw a fantastic picture of  someone's hand knit socks all laid out in a color wheel. (That site is gone now, but I found it on the wayback machine if you want to see the fifty-seven pairs of socks that got me so giddy.) At the time I'd only knit a handful of socks myself and even one seemed like a huge accomplishment.

Times have changed and a decade has passed and look what I've done..



This is only thirty-two of the sixty-some pairs I've knit since that picture took my breath away. I think I'm a real sock knitter!

What would be interesting would be to compare this with the sock yarn in my stash. The colors I love to buy versus the colors I actually pick up when it's time to knit...

    I love that picture of your socks. One day I hope I can make a color wheel of socks too. This will be my inspiration picture. I"m working on pair # 11 now, so it will not be anytime soon, but something to aim for. Thanks.
