Happy Knit in Public day! Last night at knit group I finished up the above sock, mojo destined for my swap partner. It is still missing it's after-thought heel but it doesn't really even need one.

We were joined by la sexta noticias who interviewed us about our projects and how knitting was becoming popular amongst younger people. It's in Spanish, but it's less than 2 mins long if you want to check it out.


Siona, one of the madrid knits founders, sent me this picture of me being interviewed!



To avoid Second Sock Syndrome I cast on another sock:

No one said it had to be of the same pair, right? These will be the twisted socks in Noro Kureyon Sock... which I'm not really convinced by. We've had some bad weather here so it's hard to get decent pictures, but in this one:

You might be able to see the thick and thin nature of the yarn, which to me is not really great for socks.
