I've knitted a few projects from 'Lavish Lace' in assorted sock yarn. The patterns all use Cherry Tree Hill yarns but I've used Lornas Laces sock yarn and other sock yarn. It's quite a while ago though so don't think I can dig out any photos.
Gloves are an obvious thing for sock yarn or fingerless gloves/mitts. Scarves and hats are ideal for sock yarn.
And don't forget my two shawl patterns, Ocean Waves and Carmen. Both are using sock yarn, although you need more than one skein. Check out my Etsy shop for more details and pic (www.yarnaddictanni.etsy.com). I'm working on some more shawls using sock yarn, one is using some of n's Merino Tencel. _________________ www.annisknittingblog.blogspot.com - My Blog
