This one is slllllooowww going, but tons of fun.

this is the toe to my new sock

I had a horrible time trying to get a good shot of it. It’s the new cast on we learned when we took a class with Cat Bordhi, i makes a star but I like the feel of this one more than I did when I tried a star toe years ago, the increases are fast and i like the toes of my socks kind of square.

I like the yarn, too, but it’s a little hard to work with, it really twists back on itself. I don’t have the label handy or I’d tell you what it is.

This all comes from Cat Bordhi’s new book, Personal Footprints for Insouciant Sock Knitters. My own footprint is there in cardboard and I will write on it as I go along to put my personal information on it. I love this method more than any of the others I’ve tried.

“Insouciant …that cheerful feeling you have when nothing is bothering you, for example: as you are knitting a personal footprint sock!” -Cat Bordhi
