08-26-2020 Finished the second sock and really heartpulse them revolving_hearts

08-25-2020 Completed gusset decreases and finished third repeat of Flower Chart. Hope to finish fourth repeat of Flower Chart and toe tomorrow heartpulse

Switched back to my Zing Size US 1 (2.25mm) 12” Circular and picked up gusset stitches. Knitting Instep and gusset decreases. smiling_face_with_3_hearts

Finished second Flower Chart, decrease and 2 rounds. Switched to addiCraSyTrio 2.25mm flexible dpns to knit Heel Flap and Heel Turn.

08-24-2020 Finished first Flower Chart, decrease round, stockinette with MC, increase round and 2 rounds of second Flower Chart before Heel.

08-23-2020 Finished first sock sparkling_heart Second picture from top is the inside of my sock revolving_hearts Completed Long Tail Cast On and knit ribbing, set up and 10 rounds of Flower Chart of second sock.

Switched to my addiCraSyTrio size 2.25mm flexible dpns to knit toe decreases and Kitchener Stitched last 10 stitches on each needle.

08-22-2020 Still knitting colorwork to the toe heart_eyes

08-21-2020 Finished gusset decreases and started colorwork to toe.

Spent too much time comparing this pattern to Blooming Lavender and Lush Lemonade. This is a 2017 pattern and notice that Charlotte Stone uses M1L in her newer patterns instead of K1fb to increase a stitch. Also fewer gusset decreases in this design and concerned about the colorwork/length of my size small sock … this pair of socks will be a little bit longer from the heel to the toe.

08-20-20 After our 2.5 mile morning walk, I knit the second repeat of Flower Chart. Switched to my addiCraSyTrio size 2.25mm dpns and knit Heel Flap and Heel Turn. Switched back to my Zing Size US 1 (2.25mm) 12” Circular and picked up gusset stitches and began decreases.

Finished first repeat of Flower Chart and rounds before second Flower Chart repeat this morning.

08-19-2020 Promised my hubby I would only knit very early in the morning, or while watching evening TV. Was going to start this pair August 25th, but my hands are itching to knit another pair of socks!! Using my Zing Size US 1 (2.25mm) 12” Circular, completed Long Tail Cast On, 17 rows of ribbing, set up and 5 rounds of Flower Chart yarn

08-10-2020 Received yarn. Very excited to start my third pair of socks designed by Charlotte Stone heavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornamentheavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornamentheavy_heart_exclamation_mark_ornament

07-21-2020 Purchased and printed pattern. Ordered yarn from A Twist Of yarn online.

We just celebrated our 16th Wedding Anniversary champagne clinking_glasses My hubby always gives me beautiful pink roses, so when I saw this pattern, of course I had to buy it and find yarn smiling_face_with_3_hearts
