Knitting News

 

Just look at that glorious sleeve, so so close to the end. By this evening, I will be picking up the next sleeve and carrying on with getting this sweater finished and blocked in time for the crisp fall season. Speaking of cooler air, yesterday was gorgeous, I wore a long sleeve shirt for the first time since the spring and felt cold. 

The first sock is almost done! I love this color and after nearly a week of knitting these socks in front of my husband (which are for my husband) he asked if they were for him. So now the surprise socks are not some much a surprise anymore.

What are you working on this week?

  2. The blue of that yarn has really lovely depth and I love waffle pattern socks (especially that color)!

  3. Sounds like fall has come to your neck of the woods. That sweater color is gorgeous. I chuckled about your husband. Everytime my husband sees me casting on socks he asks if they are for him. He loves my socks best!

  4. Well, often the anticipation of getting something you like is even more fun than a surprise, so it's all good, if you ask me ;-)
    Love the color of that sweater (I may have told you that before, but it's true!)

  9. What a classic sweater pattern. It is so pretty in that blue. The socks look squishy and warm. I hope the cooler weather is here to stay.

  12. Love that blue for your sweater. How's it doing now? Nice work on the sock also; what pattern are you using? It looks familiar.
