Still working on socks. This is a skein of Fortisimma Socka that I had in the stash from a sale at Webs. My niece pointed out that those are the colors of the German flag so I may have to give those to her since she's half German. She travels to Germany every year so I'm thinking she would love these.
So much for the original plan I had!
What's on your needles these days?

Very pretty. I need to see if I can find some yarn like that for Emerson, she would love it.
Yes, she must have those socks!
Other people getting our precious knits is a common theme on Yarn Along today! It will be a treat for your nice, I am sure. Great colors!
Love the wide stripes....don't see that very often in the self-striping yarns!!! Pretty
I agree with Steph...love the wide blocks/stripes of color! What a lucky niece you have, Donna. :)
xo
Ooh fab yarn colours, handy that they match the flag! :)
I see you are using the magic loop? That's how I knit my first socks...was considering trying DPN for the second pair. Worth a try, or don't bother?
So funny :-) these look like perfect traveling socks to me.
Waving 'hi' from the north of Germany!
LOL, glad I'm not the only one who thought of Germany!!! I love my German National Men's team! Can't wait for the next World Cup!
Very cool yarn! Lucky sock receiver!
I like the flecked look of your yarn. I started a pair of socks a couple of weeks ago and seeing yours has reminded me I really need to finish the last one - got to the heel so not far to go :)
Yes, those are the colors of the German flag. :-) I've actually made 3 pairs of socks out of yarn like that and the girls and I sport them quite often during the winter.
pretty pretty! it sure looks like your yarn is in your coffee, though, haha!
Oh I adore stripped yarn! and she is right, are the colours of the german flag.. but I am currently in germany so maybe the socks have to be for me? -sticks out tongue-
Lovely knitting! Enjoy your day!
beautiful socks and what a great way to hint for a pair (ha ha ha!)
I love the German socks! I should find that yarn since my mother and stepfather are living there right now. hehe.
