Season 16 scarf... as socks!

May 31, 2008 20:27

I'm not sure how many points to count this as. I took the scarf pattern and cut it in half, otherwise the stripes were WAY too big. and 1 sock was only about 1/3 of that pattern (damn my short stumpy legs!). And since I'm about 2/3 of the way through 2 complete socks... argh, math was never my strong suit. Please help a poor fool out and tell me ( Read more... )

in progress, knitalong

Thank you. If I'm remembered for one thing, it will probably be that icon. ;)

Oh those are AWESOME! I absolutely love them! What yarn did you use? And do you have this on Ravelry?

THanks!! This is on my ravelry page (purpleallison there too). But I don't have photos up, since I don't have flickr and I haven't gotten around to figuring out slurping yet.

Well, you got one sock done, so I'm going with one point. If you get more done by the end of tomorrow I'd say we can give you two points. Because we're not just the good team, we're the nice team :)

But it *has* to be three points, heels and toes are so much harder to make than just a straight scarf! Do want ^_^

Thanks, I kind of stole it from the Bunny Book Of Random. I highly recommend you read through the archive, he likes DW a lot ^_^

When I read socks before looking to the picture I thought..ya know..socks...no higher than knee high...but WOW! Those are amazing!
I know my husband would love those(on me of course LOL)..he's been saying I should give socks a try...you've got such a wonderful idea that I think I might need to steal if you don't mind :)
