24 Socks and Mittens

Here they are done at last. All the socks, mittens and hanging loops are now complete and the cord has been finished today - alas it was not complete before Christmas as an injury prevented this. Still I am well ahead of schedule for next year :-)

Stripes and Spots

Nearly there - here is the last of the stripy socks and the first spotty one. I am pleased to report that all the socks have been completed since this photograph was taken - the spotty one above took some doing in order to get the spots correct after shaping the heel - I changed the pattern as I didn't think the spots fell properly so that took a few attempts until I was happy.
I have also completed all the hanging loops but need to do the cord now - just started but it needs to be 59ins long - seems a funny number why not 60??
Ok must get back to it so that it is completed before the 24th - a day when I can start another project, yes?
ps. Just read the pattern - apparently the cord needs to be 150cm which is 59" - completely glossed over the metric stuff :-)

And now for some socks

All the mittens are now finished and here is the first batch of socks. Still got another 5 to knit. Hopefully these will be done before the 24th!!!

Not managed to finish off the Father Christmas I made last week as I am really trying to finish off these socks. Honest, I am.
