I am knitting a pair for the February challenge but have kept it all secret so far as I'm making up my own pattern!

All I'll admit to is that they're for DH & both are being knitted on two circs at once.

Photos once I'm finished.......

Sounds interesting! I want to have a go at designing a sock sometime - not brave enough at the moment (and I'm such a slow knitter!)

No more clues yet apart from the fact that DH has big feet Sad

Noo - I'm keeping my two balls of yarn in separate bags with a Klippit from Lakeland across each bag. When knitting I move the clip to cover 95% of the opening so the yarn is allowed to run freely but doesn't escape.

I use a ziplock bag thing and close it up in a similar manner, with one string one side and the other coming out the other side and it's a dual purpose thing... when i sit with my feet up on the stool i tend to cross my ankles which is a BAD thing (poor circulation an all that) so i have the bag across my ankles which stops me Very Happy when i turn the work i just flip the bag round and nothing gets tangled, tis magic Very Happy

Ok Fi you've forced my hand. Yes I'm using Regia Country 6ply in Granite (the grey mix on the right):



and I intend to finish them by the end of the month!
