"... then a pair of twin girls, 'Patil' and 'Patil'..."

After many months of neglect in my awesome pink sock bag from Carmen, Padma and Parvati are finally finished.

I used two skeins of Sandnesgarn Lanett, color 4520 and 4505. I wanted to use them up as equally as possible, so this is the plan I came up with: three-row stripes, with the yarns carried up the inside. They need to be washed and blocked, and have the ends woven in, but overall I am very pleased with them. I got my inspiration from the Fred and George socks, which I think I will one day need to make when I have more single skeins lying around the place.

I'm also planning on taking part in NaKniSweMoDo — rather unofficially, as I'm about a month late, but my goal is to knit a sweater a month in 2009 (National Knit a Sweater Month Dodecathon). I'm a bit behind, but I plan to do as much catching up as possible this weekend, and then hope to knit something quick in February to make up for it!
