I finished sock no. 1 last night and cast on for the second sock. I already love these so much. They fit more snuggly than the last pair I knitted with the exact same “recipe” but maybe they will grow a bit with blocking. If not, it’ll be just fine. I think it must be a slightly finer weight sock yarn. Even though I prefer the aesthetic of simple neutrals, I have sincerely enjoyed every single stitch of these socks. The colors are simply gorgeous, especially the coppery flecks and golden yellow. No second sock syndrome here. Is it just because so many people are talking about school starting back this week or did I sense a tiny shift in the weather here? I don’t tend to allow myself to think about fall until we are through with September because August and September seem to be North Carolina’s hottest months. Even still, it seems the mornings have a different sort of chill to them this week and it makes me excited for cool fall mornings wrapped up in shawls next to a fire.
Still reading Devoted (affiliate link), and almost done with it. I’ve finally gotten myself a book light (why did it take me so long?) so I can read in bed at night (when I seem to get the most reading done) without disturbing Wren or Brandon. It’s been a game changer. 🙂 So yes, hopefully I will get a bit more reading accomplished!
