How high would you go.. sock wise?

Right so I’m knitting my own sock, both at the same time each with their own little ball of yarn. And this yarn is not finished yet and I’m passed my ankle bone. And a new dilemma has occured:

How high do I go?


This is where I am now...

I’m not sure. On the one hand I’d like a ‘normal’ pair of socks, but on the other this is super-de-luxe yarn It’s pure cashmere and I’ll be wearing it for the first time ever on my feet :D hehe. So these socks will not be worn as normal socks would. They will be my teasured pair, that I will put on (I imagine) when I’m having a girly night in. I can picture it now: nice film on telly or dvd, cup of tea or better yet some nice ice cream (mmmmm Häagen-Dazs), sitting on the sofa with socks on. In that case shouldn’t they be as high as I can make them? Don’t know  Will get back to you on this one.

The next item is not about socks but is about knitting. Lixie, who presents the great podcast Lixie Knits It has put up this fantastic map where knit-a-holics can enter the yarn stores they know of. heheh and it’s great. Take a look and enter your local yarn store!!
