Hedera
The Hedera socks are complete. Purchased 2 skeins of Panda Cotton from Twist to knit up these lacy summer socks on #0 dpns. (Shelly grabbed the first sock I completed for a sample in the shop but these are MINE!) The cotton/bamboo stretch of this yarn makes the socks quite comfortable on the footsies.

Suggestion
I found a sock pattern at Knitty that I wouldn't mind making. It's Diamante. http://knitty.com/ISSUEfall06/PATTdiamante.html

I am not rushing the monkeys. Heck, I am thinking of getting yarn for yet another pair! I was just thinking ahead as six people said they would like another KAL for a sock. I was looking at patterns and thought that I would suggest two that looked pretty good.
1. Knitty's Hedera
2. MagKnits Rainy Day Socks
What are your suggestions? I will put them together and we can vote later. No rush. No rush a'tall. I hate rushed monkeys... those are the most unruly type of monkeys.

Monkey Love
Second pair of monkeys have just jumped off of the needles. They are done. What is a girl left to do now? Make more monkeys? That is a distinct possibility...
-I have a batch of yarn left from the one ball of Plymouth Sockotta. Perhaps baby monkeys?
**Just found a pattern for Toe Up Monkeys and put it in the directions section. From Knitting Sutra!**

Bad Monkey, No No!
I started my monkey. I did. But the yarn wasn't right so I started to wind some Lorna's Laces (in "jeans," a lovely mix of blues) but I am apparently a complete moron who has lost the ability to use a swift and a yarn winder.
In my defense it WAS after midnight and I was tired.
I'm going after that monkey tomorrow.
Knit on.

K-state purple socks
What yarn are you using for your monkeys? I used Cherry Tree Hill in Loden for the first pair and LOVED it. I am now using Plymouth Sockotta in some blue /green combo and I really enjoy the colors, but it is a twitch twisty for my liking. I think that the pattern is turning out just splendidly in the variegated yarn as compared to the solid color. I am starting to decided on what yarn to use for my next pair and if I could possibly make a baby monkey sock...

Knit No Evil
Welcome to the first post on the Monkey Sock Knit Along! I am forewarning you that this pattern is highly addictive. If you start knitting one, you will soon have too many monkeys jumping on your bed. It is total craziness. Please post pictures in progress of your monkeys, finished monkeys or just monkeys monkeying around!!!
Here I am working on monkey #3!!
