Progress So Far

I decided to do the Fisherman stocking first. I liked the colour of the yarn so much I had to knit it up. I am using the Fisherman pattern because I bought 3 balls of the yarn and with the cabling I figured I might need the extra ball. I'm almost done with the 40 rows the pattern tells you to knit before you move on to the next step. It's a fun knit. I just wish I could do the cable sections without a cable needle. I don't usually use them anymore but this cable is very fiddly and if I try doing it without the needle the one stitch that later needs to be brought to the front of the needle always drops. I should have this done by the weekend and then I'll knit the Colleen sock.

  3. Sorry, I accidentally posted the reply form my beta blogger account. I found the pattern at knittingpatterncentral.com and it is in the Christmas section. The name is Fisherman Stocking or something like that.
