What’s that? Ramen Noodles……
By Sarah | May 30, 2007
Rosie has been reduced to a pile of ramen noodles…. how sad. But, don’t worry (at least that is what I am telling myself) I am going to do this. No, not the actual pattern, but the technique of knitting both socks at the same time on two circulars. Maybe, just maybe I will get (dare I hope?) an actual, completed pair this way. And, yes, I will be making the Charadesock in YP Rosie. And, hopefully, with the help of the Knitty pattern I will be able to get my gusset and decreases to be all pretty and proper. (Thanks Sandra!)
What an honor! The International Knitters Treat Exchange was such fun. I was spoiled by the lovely Chrissy and I had the privilege of spoiling the ever so gracious Diane and she was sweet enough to nominate me for Best Treater. And I won! Thank you for the nomination Diane – it was a great fun putting your package together.
How’s Melody? She’s coming along great – just another 5 inches or so. I hope to have it done by the end of the weekend – (don’t hold your breath, but it could happen).

Melody is beautiful! You’ve gotten alot done in the last few days. That is a neat idea to knit both socks at the same time…you are a bit gutsy
It is fun to try new patterns. I am intrigued about how this will look as you are knitting, so take pictures.

Melody is so beautiful. You’ve gotten alot done over the past few days. Sounds like an intriguing idea for Rosie. Hopefully you will end up with a FO. Post pics so we can see your progress.

Isn’t if funny that I sent you the same type of yarn that you sent your pal!

Congrats on winning the exchange!!
Two socks on two circs has intrigued me since I heard about it last year. I think it’s a great way to ensure a pair of matched socks! (Although I haven’t tried it yet.) Good luck.
Melody is so you! Perfect color…

Hooray for frogging! I can’t wait to see how your double-knitted socks turn out. I’ve been wanting to try the technique myself. Good luck.
