In Which the Pirate Makes Sock Progress.

Pomatomus marches on! Here it is, about halfway through the third pattern repeat. There are only nine rounds to go until I start the heel.

I decided not to make the socks any taller than the pattern calls for, so I’ll have enough of the yarn left over to make matching fingerless gloves. The yarn felt so nice on my arm when I tried it on to take the picture. Warm, but not too scratchy. It may be a little too loose for my skinny little arms, so I’ll have to remember to go down a needle size for the gloves.

It amuses me that I come up with new projects to work on faster than I can finish the ones already on the needles.
