Hand knitted socks...or should I say 'sock' singular.

I finished work (for the second time) a couple of weeks ago and while having a leisurely glass of Cab Sav at the end of my last day, I was pondering my future and indulgently dreaming about how much sewing and creative time I would now have.

Pure bliss.

It was obviously during my second  glass that I came up with a little personal challenge for myself - to hand make, op-shop, or up-cycle everything I purchase to wear for the next twelve months.

I did notice in the light of day the following morning however that my sock and knicker drawer is looking somewhat sparse which is a little bit scary.

Anyway...

Check this out...

I have three quarters of a sock!

I'm so in love with my funky sock that I've ordered enough yarn for eight (yes you read that right) more pairs of socks.  I hope I can stop hopping round on one foot admiring my own skill long enough to get some actual knitting done.

This challenge is going to be so much fun!
