Remember that Schaefer Anne from Tuesday’s post? I’m turning it into Merino Lace Socks from the Interweave Knits Favorite Socks book. These are for my Bloomin’ Feet pal who says she likes blue, green and purple. I hope she likes lace, too.
However, Sock Madness Round 3 started yesterday morning and the Bloomin’ Feet socks have been cast aside for Painted Madness socks. I love this pattern even more than the previous two Sock Madness patterns!
That’s my progress as of this morning. Can’t blog. Must knit.
The socks look great!
Love that blue!! Beautiful socks!!
Sis boom bah! Carole in the raw ….oops wrong cheer. Go grrl!!!
go…go…go
(Bowing). Good morning, oh sock goddess.
Eee gads woman! Nothing like knitting with a deadline. I concur with Kathy on the sock goddess thing! Both socks are lovely btw.
The Blomin’ Feet socks look great so far. The colors are so nice and soft. I hope those are mine.
Y’all fasten your seatbelts – she’s going for the gold! Knit… Knit… Knit….KNIT!!!!
I love the yarn you’re using for the sock madness sock. May I ask what it is?
Wow, blogging and knitting at 7 AM?!! And such lovely socks too.
Go Carole! Make those needles fly!
Fab socks as always!
I’m lovin’ the thumb ring….beautiful!!
That’s how I am right now…. too busy knitting (and, eh hem, reading a few blogs) to do a blog post! Love both socks! The Bloomin Feet sock… that’s just a lacey pattern, not laceweight yarn, right?? Soooo pretty. And I love the little ric-rac edging on the Sock Madness pattern!! Is that… could it be… October? If not, it could pass for her sister! ha
I love the edging on the Madness sock!
You sure picked a perfect colorway for your BF pal.
Go Carole Go!
I didn’t get to knit at all this morning; no power at the house so it was too dark. Damn! I think I could have gotten to the heel turn, too. I stayed up until midnight because I couldn’t really get going on them until 8:30. Hopefully, this won’t turn into a multi-day power outage and I’ll be able to knit, knit, knit tonight!
Yours are looking great! I really like this pattern, too, although I’m wishing I had chosen a different yarn.
Wow! Your socks are looking awesome. I’m sure you’ll have the pair finished in no time.
Great progress!! Go Carole!
You made quite a bit of progress on the BF socks! Now go kick some ass in Sock Wars!!!!
Not that you’ll need it, but good luck in the next round!!
I love the march madness socks, can’t wait to see the end result.
the bloomin feet socks are looking great too!
Oooooh such pretty blues. Painted Madness looks pretty mad too.
Pretty socks!!! Now to play and win in the sock wars!!!

I hear you can knit in your sleep!!!
WOW – Two GORGEOUS socks!
Don’t blame you – knit knit knit knit!!!
(((hugs)))
Go Carol… Go Carol… Go Carol…
Hear us cheering wildly for you??!! 🙂
=:8
Woo!
You can do it!
I like blue, green and purple (and that pattern, because I’ve knit it before). Surely you wouldn’t mind knitting a pair for me too? Since you have so much time on your hands?
Great job. I love the vibrant colored one. Happy knitting!
That Anne sure is purdy. And go go go go go go go go for Round 3!
Go Carole, go, go, go, go!
I told you you would win!
Socks look great! And congrats!
Ooohh…pretty socks!
Congrats on the win—i’m cheerin’ for you for the next round!!!
Lurv your socks!!

Keep knitting Carole! Those socks all look great!
Those are stunning – both! Knit, Carole, Knit!
Oh dear…Don’t stress yourself out!
Knit Carole! Knit Carole! Knit!
Both socks look great good luck!
Awesome Progress! I hope you make it through to the next round. 😀

Your sock partner would be mad not to appreciate the lace in her sock! What a lovely color combo, and it makes the lace look so very lovely!
Let me know when you get to the heel flap! 🙂 We’ll talk. 😉
Your socks rule!
that Bloomin Feet sock is making me turn into mush -all melty and happy like velveta –
you DO know my address, right? (big grin)
Ooh! I really like the colorway of the Bloomin Socks. They really look springy!
