Wednesday WIPs

 

Sitting and Knitting time was hard to find this week but I did get an inch or two on the socks.



I've been working on my first "innie" block of the Hue Shift Afghan and it's not going so well. I had to send my first try to the frog pond because the place where all three blocks meet looked terrible. I had managed to get a big bump there so I'm starting over and being more careful this time. 



I've got the March quota of the Doodle Cowl finished. Now I have to decide where to go next for April.




And I'm sad to report that my powdered buttermilk didn't work quite as well as I'd hoped with the soda bread. I usually get a big rise out of the real stuff but yesterday I ended up with two scones. Ah, well. Flat or not, they were good.

    I think you did quite a bit of knitting for not having much knitting time this week, and it all looks lovely. Enjoy the rest of your scones!

    You've been busy (trees and grandkids), but you've made nice progress on your socks and that cowl is very nice! I love scones!!

    I am going to have to try some soda bread one of these days - I've never had it!

    The cowl looks good! So does the progress on the socks!

    May all the corners on your Hue Shift Afghan behave themselves. I read a little about soda bread this year but didn't quite make a loaf. I do love to bake with buttermilk. In a pinch, I've tried powdered buttermilk but for me it just isn't quite the same.
