Is looking like this....
and this....
and moving right along as this....
Look at them there stripes!!! I love that they are subtle in their transitioning too. Seriously, I did not plan this! I'm such a spinning newb I just spin it....and it somehow becomes yarn...
It doesn't have a lot of give like other sock yarns do..well maybe because it's sport/dk weight on US 3's. It's quite interesting to knit with...um..er..gotta work on keeping consistent yarn ;)
Gotta go, I want to finish the cuff in the next day or so and cast on Sock 2. My sock mojo is back....

Yeah for sock mojo. The yarn is beautiful. Congrats on the great job spinning it up.
The batt looks sooooo soft.
I love how you can go from the batt to the socks - lovely!
Pishaw! Your yarn is very even for a newbie! I don't consider myself a total newbie anymore and it's waaaay more even than mine!
Cozy looking socks!
Beautiful socks. Can't wait to see how the finished pair turns out.
So very nice! Lovely spinning.
I just fell out of my damn chair! What the hell have you been doing now that I'm not around?!?!
You have teh awesum!!!
fiber to finished project still amazes the daylight out of me! So pretty!
"Spinning Newb" - my ass. You're awesome!
Just love the colour of your yarn and your socks are turning out great. I have never used spun yarn! so you are amazing to be able to do spinning!
GORGEOUS! I really need to get "back on the wheel"...though don't you look at that beautiful braid of roving and love it just like that? I have a hard time sometimes pulling it apart because it's so pretty unspun.
Those are lovely! The colors are so subdued and pretty. The yarn looks pretty even to me...but I'm not a spinner, so what do I know! Well, I know I'd knit with it, so that should say something for you. :)
Oh my, that IS pretty. I bet they'll be comfy, but hardwearing socks. Looking forward to seeing the finished pair this week :0)
Oh my gosh, you are amazing!!!! That yarn, that sock. Wow!
Great post! I'm always awed by a fiber to knitted object photo series.
Wow, you really did great job with the yarn!
And the stockinette is such perfect for that spun!
I love how these are turning out...the nice subtle colors and the soft striping. Wonderful!
Gorgeous sock! And newb spinner - my foot! You are not! I'm so smitten with handspun....it knits up into such pretty fabric.
PS - can you pass some of the sock knitting mojo to me, pretty please?
OOOH I LIKE this yarn!! You did a great job spinning it up, and I'm loving the subtle striping as well.
