Dang.
Specs:
Tech Guy Socks from February MagKnits for my mom, knit with 1.2 skeins Louet Sales Gems Quartz (neither of the pictures have very accurate colors), no mods. I finished these on Feb 15. I don't know what kept me so long. Gosh.
She loves them. They really are soft.

More LCS
Specs:
Pattern: Log Cabin socks from Handknt Holidays
Needles: US4 Brysoun dpns
Yarn: Mystery pink from the super assortment
Mods: I messed with the pattern a little bit to make a kid size, plus a short row heel and toe.
She's been wearing them since I gave them to her this morning @ 10. They're getting fuzzy already, sigh.
Pink Lace
Yarn: Filatura di Crosa Baby Kid Extra
Needles: US10 Boye
The teeny yarn on big needles took some getting used to, this is my first lacy project.
As someone from my church said, "That's not gonna keep you warm!"

Mini Ruffles
Pattern: Ruffles from Scarf Style
Yarn: Mystery pink and blue two-strand.
Needles: us4 Bryspun dpns (I used two like straights)
Mods: Made it smaller.
The short row wraps are bumpy and it's too short to really do anything wit, but I'll find a use for it. In the meantime I'm just glad it's done.

Jaywalker socks
Pattern: Jaywalker, by Grumperina (do I really need to link?)
Yarn: Dale Baby Ull, which I dyed to get the blue and green variegation :D
Needles: US1 Prym dpns
Other stuff: I made it a bobby sock, which I like. I changed the number of sts in between dec's/inc's to a little bit less, and then it was a little bit small, so I actually have more stockinette/sole sts then zigzag/instep sts. And of course I did my custom-fit toe.
I love them soooooo much
