Vaikkakaan minun vankilaraita-Jaywalkerit eivät käyttäytyneet niin sitten loppupeleissä. Liekö syynä minä itse (huono kutoja), minun jalka, liian isot puikot vai lanka (7 veljestä), niin ne venähtivät pusseiksi. Se on vissiin sitä itselle neulomisen vaikeutta se.. Ja taisi siellä tosiaan olla muutama silmukkakin liikaa... *ooopppss*
Juu, kattokaa vaan tota sukkaa, muuta kuvassa ei olekaan
(ts. pitäs myös siivota täällä joskus..)
Yeah, just look at the sock. Nothing more to see there!
(i.e. I should clean the place up..)
Tuo kerä ei varmaan ikinä lopu! Näyttää kuin siitä ei olisi vielä kudottukaan!
That yarn will never end! It looks as if the skein is still brand new!
Ja huomenna viimeistään luon silmukat toisellekin sukalle.
Hyvää pääsiäistä!

All right, above the first Laine-sock BOed. I did all the other things as the pattern told me, except for the toe. I just "can't" make a "normal" toe, but loooove kitchener stitch toes. They fit and look somehow a bit better.
Although... that didn't happen with my Jail-Jaywalkers in January. I don't now which of these were the reason: me (bad knitter), too big sticks, my feet, the yarn (Finnish self-striping 7 Veljestä, 75% wool, 25% polyamide) or too many stitches, but the socks are now wayyy bigger than they used to be. When I walk, they tend to fall off my feet... *haha* I guess it is called "the difficulty of knitting to oneself"-syndrome
Anyway, The Laine-sock has a really nice pattern -an easy one when you concentrate on it at first. I tried it with a thicker yarn after Christmas, but I would have had to adjust the stitches, so it didn't work out then. But, I don't understand where I got the nine extra stitches after the heel!! Imagine, nine!! I just noticed it when I had already knitted the foot for a little while, so I didn't rip it. And it fits my foot. I just have to get the extra stitches to the other sock from somewhere as well... I hope these socks won't do as my jailwalkers did!
Tomorrow at the latest I'll CO for the other sock.
Happy Easter Everyone!
