Work in Progress Wednesday 150

Holy smokes, 150 Work in Progress Wednesdays. That's incredible, right? I never thought when I started doing this I would still be doing it 150 weeks later. Crazy.


This week I'm working on a new sock. It's my go to pattern when I don't want to do something fancy but want a little more than a regular vanilla sock. It's Hermione's Everyday Socks and this is the 3rd time I've made them. I'm making it because I'm testing a new yarn I'll be carrying for Candy Skein soon! It will be called Savory Fingering and so far I like it! It has a twist similar to Tosh Sock and is a 80/20 merino superwash/nylon blend. I figured I'd make a pattern I"m really familiar with so I can compare this yarn to Yummy fingering. Don't worry, Yummy fingering won't be going away, this will just be a new option!

That's it for me. I'll be writing FO Friday tomorrow as we're headed to LA for a Neil Gaiman talk/signing! I can't freakin' wait!!!
