Knitting socks on size 3 needles is such a dream. The socks zoom and fly off the needle. Here's the first pair of 2008.
This is Regia 6 fadig in Crazy Colors. As you can see, I turned the socks inside out because I liked the reverse stockinette. It seems to tame the craziness of the stripes a bit. I actually have 2 more skeins of this, and so can make another pair of socks. But I needed to change it up, so I started another pair...
Lovely, pretty Colinette Jitterbug in Mardia Gras. I started these last night, and as you can see, they are also flying, but this time on size 2s (1s? I don't know... stupid Knit Picks and their lack of marking). I love this yarn to no end, but there were 2 knots in it!!!! For the price of this yarn, I would expect zero knots. Oh well... back to knitting.

I'm with you on the reverse stockinette socks. Thanks for the inspiration, I think 'm going to cast on a pair myself.
