Here are the completed jelly bean socks.
Thanks again to my in-laws for the sock yarn. They also gave me a ball of Magic Stripes in the Purple Pattern which I plan on using next month.
With the socks finished, I've started on the Guideposts sweater. Last month, Sarah put a call out for a charity sweater knit along. Finished sweaters are sent to the Guideposts Sweater Project. Children's sweaters from sizes 2-12 are accepted. My contribution will be this sweater.
The pattern is number 36 from the Fall 2001 issue of FCEK. I have a lot of black Lion's Brand Jiffy floating around in my stash so I'm using that in place of the Wool Ease Chunky called out for in the pattern.
I can't believe you already got the second sock done! You are so fast with those. I haven't started mine yet because I'm making the matching fun fur purse for Megan first.
Hope the sweater goes quickly also.
Hey Christina. I love those socks! I've added your name to the Vintage Knits-along site. Let me know how the progress goes.

First of all, I have to say that Charlotte looks just darling in her "ensemble"! I'm glad she likes wearing them. I made mitts for one of my nieces and she refuses to wear tham!
Your socks, as usual, look wonderful. I marvel at how quickly you manage to complete them!
I love the jelly bean color scheme. It's the perfect thing to bring a bit of color to winter!
Love the socks!Inspires me to finish up some of my languishing sock projects....I'll keep you posted on the sweater softener project!
