SOCK CLASS!

Hi Knitters,
Below are some pictures of our 2 socks on 2 cir. The first picture is Pat's sock. She made the sock with Cascade fixatation and sz. 3 needles. Next to Pat's sock is a picture of the class she was teaching. As you can see there are a lot of people that wanted to learn this technique.

Below is Julie working on her pink and purple socks and below is Joyce working on her socks. Joyce spun the wool she is using.


Gail is working on her Wonderful Wallaby, Cecei is working on her socks using Cascade Fixation and Linda is also working on her socks using Fixation.


Here are 2 pictures of my socks. I just needed to finish up the toe. Next week I will post pictures of these socks actually on someones feet.

Here are a few pictures of things other then socks. Kathy made a child's throw using Plymouth Encore Colorspun. She held 5 strands together and used very large needles. It came out great! She is making 2 more with different colors. I will post them as soon as she is done. Next is Cindy's purse. She is using Plymouth's Fantasy Naturale. I will post another picture when it's all done.
