Progress on my socks

I am rather busy these days - a lot of things to take care of. But from time to time I grab my needles so now I have finished the foot of the first sock. I am very happy with how it looks and they feel so comfortable and warm. Most definitely I will be knitting socks starting from toe and knitting up again. It is great being able to try on the sock and then decide how long you want your sock to be, and how much yarn you wish to use on one sock.


I have bought some more books, too. This time it was three books about spinning, dying and socks. I like them all.
For a longtime ago I ordered some alpaca roving from Australia. Two white and one brown. 100 grams each. They looks nice, but are not as soft as my Norwegian alpaca fleece. So I guess the fleece I have is baby alpaca and this roving is adult alpaca. I look forward to spinning it. But first I will do some more practice on my less exclusive roving.
