Carefree KAL: Another project started

Another project started

Here's the start of some socks I'm knitting for my dad:

The pattern is Thuja by Bobby Ziegler. I'm using Briggs & Little Tuffy in Blue Mix and 4mm dpns. It's going quickly; I cast on about a week ago but have been working on other projects as well.

ikkinlala said...: Thanks! I haven't made my dad socks before. I've made them for just about everyone else in my family, but not him until now. I've started socks intended for him a couple of other times and other people have claimed them before I finished, but I'm not going to let that happen this time.; November 10, 2009 at 11:55 AM
