John and I always like to drive to Silver Lake when we're in Salt Lake City. Since this was a working trip with activities scheduled for the evening, the only time we could squeeze it in was yesterday morning before our flight. The weather was grey and overcast as it had been for most of the week, but even so, the lake was beautiful.
So what's a knitter to do when she finishes a pair of socks? Cast on another pair, of course.
This is working up quickly, but isn't that the way it always goes with the first one?
Love the socks! Beautiful pics of the lake, too.
ReplyDeleteI love how the socks turned out!
ReplyDeleteYum, I love this new sock yarn! The colors are great.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job of fixing that yarn. The socks look lovely!
ReplyDeleteWelcome home.
love the colors in the online socks! matched your pictures of silver lake :) and knitting while traveling sure does make the it seem faster! i absolutely agree :)
ReplyDeleteIan tells me he likes your socks. Great minds think alike I like them too. Looks a nice place to be. Enjoy!
ReplyDeletelooks like your finished socks match the lake! Great pics, and I'm loven the socks in progress : )
ReplyDeleteGreat lake photos. I think I'll have to take my family up there. I haven't been since I was a teenager. I love the socks - both the finished pair and the bright one on needles.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous that you know how to knit socks. I am hoping to learn still. Maybe after the holidays when my list is slightly smaller, I can learn. Hope that you had a great vacation. Sounded like it from your blog entries.
ReplyDeleteThe socks look great, especially with denim.
ReplyDeleteI always have a sock project on the go, so transportable.
Beautiful photos, some place names in the states are very familiar to me obviously through movies, tv etc. and Salt Lake City is one of them. Thanks for sharing parts of your wonderful country with us :)
The socks look great, what perfectly matching stripes! Love the new colorway too- what yarn is that?
