Not all apples are red delicious

This is a snapshot into my bag of sweets - the 100% WM shelf. A little dark and you cannot see the colors, but at least you can see what it looks like. In front is my knitting machine covered by one of my handmade quilts - a grandmother flowergarden quilt entirely made by using Kaffe Fassett fabrics.

I did participate in the Kiila knitalong. They turn out ok, but for beeing a Yarnissima pattern - it was to much a piece of cake knitting.

Well after having knitted several "one-color" socks, I longed for som stranded work. In Knotiona summer issue ( http://www.knotions.com/issues/summer_2009/in_this_issue.aspx) Sara Peterson has published a pattern for apple socks. As I want to knit my socks with needle 0 (2mm) I couldn't use her pattern, but I did "borrow" her chart for apples.

Yesterday I started a new pair of socks. In Wollmeise of course.

I really love stranded work. It is fast. It is fun. It turns out great. One sock made - one to go. I'll written down what I've done on my project page at Ravelry.
