The Rivendell socks progress steadily. The pattern looks nice in the semi-solid color. Unfortunately, in this photo, you can’t really see the sparkliness from the silver thread. The pattern has been easy to follow so far; the charts reall help with that. I was thrown slightly for a loop when working the cluster stitches, but it’s an interesting technique.
While the gauge (@ 7.5 sts/in) is a little looser than I would normally knit socks, it does seem to help the knitting go quickly when each round it only 63 stitches long.
The ribbing seems really stretchy, so I don’t think I’ll have to worry too much about fit issues. Although, I don’t believe there are any plans for anyone to wear the socks. The Sock Museum website does not actually say what will happen to the socks after Sock Summit 2009.
Looks like nice socks, some lucky tooties,thnaks for sharing,Amy
