Red Thatched Roof

I finished another pair of socks today. I've actually had them on the needles for far too long. I have too many pair of socks on the needles to be honest. I really need to finish them up! So, I'm on a mission to get a bunch of second socks knit up this month. Here's the first completed pair of the 5 I've been putting off finishing for one reason or another...

Pattern: Socks of Kindness
Yarn: Colinette Jitterbug in Fire
Needles: US Size 3 DPNs

This yarn made a really thick and stretchy sock on these needles. I think that I could have gone down a needles size most likely, but even though this yarn is billed as fingering weight, it just seems heavier to me. Probably not quite sport weight, but still seems heavier than fingering. All in all though, I do like the yarn and the colorway is beautiful. These are going to be some warm socks for the coming winter.
