Love that pixie and , as Suzie says, could also do with one of them cos I hate sewing up. Good luck! I have a project on the go at the mo but will make something for the challenge if I can find the time.

Well I was giving the pattern away, but I am not sure if we are allowed to do that on here.
Thank you for the nice comments everyone.

You should be, it is a fine FO. I like the sparkly edging best.

Hello everybody , I just wanted to say that I finealy got my socks done . They are made out of baby yarn . I have started another pair for my grandson . I am using a size 3 needle which is a 31/8 mm . The DP needles are 7 inches long . The DP needles that I made my socks with are Clover Bamboo 5 inches long , and I am finding the 7 inch needles hard to work with as they only have 4 needles in the set . The Clover needles have 5 needles in the set . I find that I do better making socks with a set of 5 . I would like to make 2 socks at a time . Have any of you made them 2 at a time ?

Well done Judy & good luck for your next socks. I do mine on 2 needles as dpns hurt my hands too much. Look forward to seeing them when they're finished.

I have done socks simultaneously, but they were two needle socks. I have also done sleeves the same way. I think it could be hard to keep two adult socks on dpn's at the same time, unless you used to sets of dpn's. The hardest part is remembering to move both balls of yarn...or you grab the wrong working yarn, and end up in a big pickle.

BTW, nice socks Judy. They look really cute.
