Simply Cinnamon

cinny3

Easy peasy stockinette, I love it! These little buggers took a whole month to make because I could only work on them in between wedding madness. I used my beloved and ever so awesome Panda Cotton in the Red Cinnamon colorway. I used the 7 stitches per inches plain sock pattern, more or less, from Getting Started Knitting Socks. I used US size 2 (2.75mm) bamboo dpns, my weapons of choice for sock knitting. Wow, I just started the last three sentences with "I used," I'm blaming the allergies for my brain fog!
