Just in case you wonder where I am--- I have fallen down a rabbit hole. I think it is safe here, but it is a bit scary.
I pulled out the sock that I started knitting (how long ago was that?) and started back on it.
As you can see, I have a bit of the cuff started. What I have discovered is that I have gotten better at knitting. I think the class on Craftsy Improve your Knitting with Patty Lyons really helped me. I gave this to myself as a birthday present. Ms. Lyons is a very good instructor.
But the inspiration to start back on the sock came from signing up for the Free Sock Knit Along Class (also on Craftsy.) That gave me a jump start to work on this project again. However, I am sticking with the pattern that I started with. I saw that this class recommends that you already have made a basic sock. So, I will finish this pair (say a prayer!) and then make one of the patterns from this class.

This really caught my eye! One question, knitting in the round for sure, but how? I don't see a set of DPNs, the only way I can do it. Must be the cable attached to two needles. I tried that, but ended up totally tied up in it. Lol. The yarn is beautiful!
Look out Gene, make room for me in that hole. I also pulled out a first sock for me. Then I started to do two socks at once, need to get back to it soon. I start from the toe up.
I'm loving the yarn you selected. This will make a great pair of socks. Good luck!
If it's not Squirrels, it's Rabbits!! Make room for me in that hole, too!! I followed your link to the "Free Sock Knit Along Class" and couldn't resist signing up - and then I found a bunch of other FREE ones to go with it. Guess now I need to knit my first sock - ;))
Wow! Quilter, weaver and knitter. You are working it!!!
