All Wound Up
I only had a couple of sock toes to finish on the ride up to Daughter's yesterday so before I left I got out the fall yarn to wind up so it would be ready to go when I get home.
I didn't wind up the Felici but now that I'm thinking about it, I should. I hate surprise knots that ruin the stripe pattern and Felici can be very naughty.
I was cleaning up all the project baskets and bags and putting away all the leftover balls when I noticed how many I have. I've got a nice collection. I keep telling myself I'm going to do something with them but I rarely do.
Once upon a time I knit them all into a giant tube, cut it in half, cast off each half and had a pair of interesting leg warmers. I'm thinking I might do the same but this time graft the ends for a very interesting cowl.
Hmmm...you've given me an idea for ALL the odds and ends I have from knitting socks. There are a lot!!
ReplyDeleteI never know what to do with all of the sock yarn leftovers but now I’m thinking arm warmers might be fun too
ReplyDeleteThe leg warmers idea is inspired! My suspicion is that all knitters have leftovers we can't let go of. We'll definitely need them one day!
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to anticipate projects as we near the end of the socks!
ReplyDeleteYour legwarmers remind me of Pippi Longstocking!
