Vacation Knitting

OMG I just realized I did not take a pic while I was knitting on the trip.  Sweet BF took me to Navarre Beach, FL for a few days.  It was wonderful.

I took several projects, but spent the entire time figuring out the Fish Lips Kiss Heel.  It is not that difficult, I just didn't read the directions well enough.  I had to rip out two heels before I got it right, but now that I understand what I did wrong, I definitely LOVE it and will use it from now on.
I know the photo is not the best, but it really is a beautiful heel.  I am knitting these for BF, and I had to start into the second skein already!  Yikes!  I hope I can get another skein in this color.  It is Patons Kroy Sock, so I should be able to find one....

Wish I didn't have to work today, because I am just about ready to start the toe.  Excited to finish so I can get on to the next pair.

  1. That's a beautiful yarn, especially for a man's sock :*) I've knit several pairs of socks from Kroy Sock yarn and love them! I haven't yet tried the Fish Lips heel - it's on my to learn list. And your black shrug from your earlier post looks amazing - great job!!!!
