I designed this sock using a lattice pattern from the Harmony guides and stuck it on a sock. This is mosaic slip-stitch colorwork. I am using Briggs & Little "blue jean" durasport and "Natural" sport. Needles are Clover Bamboo size 0 (2.0 mm).

With needles in hand, Ariannah shares her lifelong love of knitting with the world...
Happily married to a terrific husband. We have 5 children. We homeschool and have enjoy the freedom and many educational and life choices homeschooling has to offer us as a family.
I was born in 1967, and have been knitting since I was approximately 6 years old.
This year, it seems that to say "I am addicted to knitting" is a cliche. Given its current popularity, everyone seems to be "addicted" to it. So it seems in the midst of knitting as a popular craze, there are no words to really describe the emotional attachment that I have to knitting, and how I uniquely feel about it.
I started my current habit of carrying around my knitting wherever I went when I was a kid. Back then it wasn't so cool to do so, and I received the flak for it. Now, I am much older and don't care which activities earn me flak, and voila, knitting is cool!
