Wee Tiny Sock

Look at what I knit yesterday, it's a teeny tiny wee sock! Can you stand the cuteness?! I know I can't. I signed up to be a part of a sock exchange called the Wee Tiny Sock Swap. I knit this one and mailed it off today and I'll receive a sock in the mail from someone by weeks end. Kind of fun, right? My friends Kim, Kelly, and Sam all participated too. (go check out their versions! So cute!) The best part is that I was able to use some of the Red Rocks Fiber Works leftovers in the Sheep in the City colorway!

Super cute--we sure got a lot of mileage out of those sock skeins!

And look at that, you made a sock. You're just a hop, skip, and a jump away from some big ones :)

I have decided that I am going to knit Wee Ones with all my extra sock yarn. This was just too much fun. I LOVE how your Wee sock turned out in that colorway. I can't wait to get mine in the mail.

Also love that you were able to use your namesake yarn and get soo much mileage out of it!

So, you've proven that you've got all the mechanics of a sock down. Now on to a sock for yourself. I want to see some sockage, young lady! :-)

How come everyone looks like they did alot less work than I did? Mine took many hours to do and I have made socks before...hmmmmmm. I should just open wide and put a sock in it!
