Last Thursday I finished spinning up this Majestic Sky Merino/Silk. I then decided it would become a pair of Adult Ladies Socks Size 7. The pattern I chose for this pair of Socks is called "Anastasia Socks". These socks are knitted from the toe up and since I've never knitted toe up socks before, I thought what the heck give it a try.
I then started reading the pattern and following the directions on the provisional cast on for the toes. Since this picture was taken I have finished the foot, short-row heel and I'm now on the leg of the first sock. I need to take a picture of how this sock looks now.
First though, I need to finish spinning up a second skein of yarn to start on the mate to this sock, once the first sock is finished.

About Me
- Spinning Ginny
- My name is Virginia (aka Ginny). I’m 48 yrs old. I was born in Merced, California. I started knitting when I was 8 years old and crocheting when I was 9. In 1998 I bought my first weaving loom and for Christmas that year my hubby bought me a spinning wheel. I’ve been weaving, spinning since then. In March 2004 I started my own business called Spinning Ginny’s Handspun Yarn and Other Gifts. I’ve been knitting socks, scarves, dish cloths, baby blankets and hats. I love spinning wool, weaving scarves, dish towels and coverlet squares. I also love to make handmade goats milk soap.
