CPY Project - January 12/12/12 KAL

Completed Crystal Palace Yarn Project for January - lace socks, ladies medium, based on the Infant's Fancy Silk Sock pattern from the book "Knitting Vintage Socks". I used two 50 Gram Balls of Panda Wool in the color "Bluebell". I used about 360 yards
in total. Cuffs are 5.5 inches. I know I said it last time, but, I love this yarn.

I posted two pictures of these socks, one taken with flash and one without, the actual color of the yarn is somewhere between the colors the photos show.

CPY Project for January - Brenda (Owlsrook)

In progress photo of my CPY Project for January - These are going to be a pair of
Lace Socks from the Knitting Vintage Socks book, they are a Child's lace pattern that I have just upsized to Ladies Medium size - the Yarn is "Panda Wool" and the color is "Bluebell". I love, love this yarn. It is so soft to knit with. This is the first time I have used Panda Wool, but it sure won't be the last.

I ordered my CPY yarns from Little Knits, and they arrived on Friday, so I had a hard time deciding which one to try first. I ordered several different Mini Mochi colors and several Panda Wool colors, so looking forward to knitting them all now.

12m/12p/12boy - January - Brenda (Owlsrook)

Completed January 2010 Projects to date:
Here are my two completed short row diagonal scarves - each done in Kroy XL Sock Yarn. "Clover Colors" and "Cameo Colors" are the yarn names. I used 3 balls of yarn for each scarf with a tiny bit of the 3rd ball left over from each scarf.

Yardage for each scarf approx. 490 yards each. The pattern is "DI.VE TESEO",
Triangle/Short-Row Scarf. (CYPF121).

I am waiting for my order of Crystal Palace yarns to come from Little Knits, so don't know if it will arrive in time for me to have a CPY project in January or not yet. In the meantime, I am off to pick something else to knit....hummmmm.

January 2010 - Projects in Progress photos - I am doing two short row diagonal scarves which were each cast on New Years Day morning - working them both at the same time, and they should be done this week, as these are quick to knit. Just garter stitch, so very quick. Each scarf is being done in Kroy XL sock yarn and I am using 3 balls of yarn for each scarf which is 166 yards per ball, so about 498 yards for each scarf. I am about three quarters of the way through them both, and almost forgot to post my in progress photo which I took New Years Day Evening.

The Green toned scarf is Kroy - Clover Colors and the Bluish/pink one is Kroy - Cameo Colors. They are both about 5 1/2 inches wide.
