Finally Some Knitting

 I finished one of my striped socks and started its mate over the kitty sitting weekend.




I also finished the mate to the Snowfling mitten. Well, almost. I need to do the thumb. Ugh. I hate colorwork in tight spaces. It took me months to finish the last thumb. I had no patience for it.




 The striped twins are at the toe. They should be done soon.




My patterned socks are taking their sweet time but they are getting close to the toe. After putting all my old socks in my new drawer I'm pretty sure these will all go in the Christmas box so I'm in no hurry.




That new Hawthorne is calling my name though. If I could get a January FO I would be very happy.

  2. I love your finish and all of your other socks too. I started a new pair today with Knir Picks Felici yarn. I think they’ll be a plain vanilla sock because of the striping.
    Blessings, Betsy

  9. Your knitting is lovely but I'll admit - it's making me twitchy to see so many things so close to being finished. But then, that Hawthorne is gorgeous....
