One down, six to go!
Woo! First sock done! It took 36 hours and three minutes – although that time included some sleep as well (not much, mind . . .). The old one was done in May. The new one is the one on the right, so you can’t see that I made a small mistake on the cable . . .
I’m especially pleased to have this sock done, because the Opal has amazing yardage – I have 36g left, wich I’m going to combine with some black Regia 4ply I have knocking around for a Turkish pattern from Anna Zilboorg. But first . . . the Leaf Lace sock!
