Bound to Make Mistakes

It really is inevitable that I will make a mistake on the simplest projects. I knitted some basic ribbed socks toe up. When I got to the leg of the first one I apparently decided that it should match the foot...I didn't rib all around.

My favorite part of the mistake is always the picture of the frogged yarn. Why does that pile of curly yarn give me so much pleasure?!

These socks were knit with some fabulous yarn I got from my Secret Sister right before I moved to LA.

I love absolutely love them. The yarn is so soft and not too warm which is perfect for the warmer climate. I had some yarn left over so I made some fingerless mitts using a pattern I've used before from Weekend knits. However, I need at least a thumb on my mitts so I added one.

Frogged yarn is so fun looking! Nice socks - I love the colours. Sock knitting is still on my to do list... one day!
