Swatching for Cinderella

I swatched for Cinderella (finally!)

Splotchy:

My first swatch for the Cinderella socks – I really wanted to knit these in a tweed yarn for some reason… I have no suitable tweed in my stash so I attempted to make me some tweed and it failed miserably!

Non-tweed swatchy. I went ahead and cast on – I love this chocolate brown and I think these will be so comfy, and I have a long ride out to Asheville tomorrow (for SAFF and hiking this weekend) on which to knit :) Progress shots next week, when we return!

Welcome!

Welcome to the Cinderella Sock-a-Long!

Grab some worsted yarn, a printout of the lovely pattern from Knitty Fall 2007, and some needles and join us – Feel free to cast on anytime! Though this would be a great project for Socktoberfest, we will continue on after October.
