Still more kitties
OK this is the end of the kittification for now - here are the completed kitty socks.
They turned out to fit pretty well - a little flabby in the foot, but they actually stay up which is a miracle.
The Knit Picks Merino Style yarn is not going to be hardwearing, but then neither would the yarn called for (baby alpaca) have been.
I have to have another sock going, so I started the 'Evening Socks for a young girl' from Knitting Vintage Socks by Nancy Bush.
Nancy would probably giggle nervously if she saw the wild yarn I'm using to make her refined lace socks, but this yarn makes me happy and we'll see how it turns out.
Meanwhile, the brushed lace cardigan proceeds. I have a completed back, and one side front which was completed after this photo was taken.
This is a fast knit, I should have it just in time to wear for spring. I hope.
