My friend Lamar commented that she hadn’t yet seen any of her sock yarn knitted up, so I told her I’d do something about that… and made these this morning.

I am totally thrilled with them, and I think I am deeming them my first official successful CSM socks - they fit great (they look a little slouchy in the photos, but I hadn’t yet washed them), and there’s no major issues with them (aka nothing horrible happened while knitting). I think I’m getting better - I’m certainly getting faster. I’d say they took me about an hour and a half, with interruptions.

Made from the remnants of a failed CSM sock, I took what was left after being partially frogged, shoved some elastic through the hung hem, and hand finished the bottom.. I love how it came out.

I wrote up the pattern here - http://www.sarahspins.com/patterns/klean-kanteen-sippy-kozy/ or you can download the PDF version

And it’s also listed on Ravelry now (also with the same PDF download, if you’d like to store it in your library or add it to your queue)
