SOCKS!
I went to the house of Evil Yarn Enabling and bought a set of short 2.5mm DPN (Bryspun flex, my favorite brand of DPNS) and two 50g balls of Pingouin Laine Nylon in this Most Lovely Blue.
I decided I wanted to do a toe-up sock, so I taught myself the figure 8 cast on. OMG tiny needles! but I've increased the toe and I'm working on the instep now. I decided that I was going to do a varied width bamboo rib, and I've just gotten far enough to do the first set of ribs.
I really wanted some fine cashmere for stupid amounts of luxury socks, but imported italion wool from a french yarn company should be snotty enough, right?
I'm worried about figuring how to turn the heel with short-row knitting, but I can figure it out when the time comes. blue! socks!
