One of the reasons I was able to tackle the sock is because of the wrap I have been working on since October. I attend a "knit-a-long" with other women who are working on the same project. While the colors we have chosen are different, the project itself is the same. I have learned much with this wrap, but the most important skill, as it relates to socks, is how to pick up stitches. The wrap is constructed of various pieces made up of different stitches that are added to each other. With the exception of one block, no pieces were seemed on.
If you look at the pictures of this wrap, first you'll notice the different colors. Each color represents a different block. This is a fun project, but I am getting tired of it. Further, once the warm weather arrives (if ever), I won't really want to have the whole wrap resting on my lap.
Naturally I have more projects to work on. I will keep a running journal of the experience.
