First Finished Object of 2011

One of my knitting goals this year is to complete the projects that were on my needles at the end of 2010.  I've cast off one.  My 2nd pair of socks.


These are called May Flowers (ravelry link) and the yarn is from The Loopy Ewe.  I was in a sock club last year and this is one of the packets.  I refer to these as my Pittsburgh socks because I started them when I was traveling back to Pittsburgh and they are yellow which is one of the colors of the Steelers.  Though I must admit I'm rooting for the Packers in the Super Bowl.

Since I've finished these, I've cast on my 1st quarter socks Worldly Socks (another ravelry link).  I'm in a knit-a-long so I aim to have these completed by mid-March. A lofty goal with everything else I have going on, but I'm gonna try!

Some additional pictures of the sock.  On the front of the leg is a tulip and I think it's interesting how each sock had a different pooling effect (the stripes or how the colors came out).  I love them though.  Great fit and lovely yarn.

Coalie looking at the socks.
And deciding that they looked to comfy to not lay on!
