Hello! I have had a flurry of new followers so welcome if you are new to this corner of blogland. Today I am teasing you with lots of unfinished by very enjoyable knitting.
First up my new patterned socks. What was I so frightened of?
Secondly, my Ankers sweater which is coming along slowly. I probably do about two or three rounds a night. I knit this one in continental style with the yarn on the left. I am getting quicker as the muscle memory for this technique develops. Not quite at the stage of watching TV and knitting without looking with this style of knitting yet but it gives my shoulder a rest from doing the same style all the time.
Finally, the cutest little socks you ever did see for one of the mums in my family group. She doesn't have small feet, she is having a baby soon.
The bigger the size the more cables you add but with these teeny ones I was only allowed two twists. I somehow think they will look even better on a baby foot but I don't have one available for modelling!
Happily knitting. What are you making?

Jo, those tiny little socks are beautiful. I am working on a quilt for Hector but it is slow going.
ReplyDeleteThe socks are beautiful, Jo. I made a pair once and promised myself never ever again so I appreciate yours all the more :-) Looking forward to seeing them finished.

I am working on a shrug, to replace one I have lost two years ago. I think I recognise the top sock pattern :-) Just hope there are not too many mistakes... The baby socks are ever so cute. I had forgotten how tiny babies are. xx
ReplyDeleteYou are making lovely things as always, especially the cute little baby socks which are adorable!
ReplyDeleteLovely socks and the tiny socks are brill. The sweater seems to be coming along nicely and looks very neat. Haven’t done patterned socks as I always prefer plain, but they do look lovely.
ReplyDeleteSocks, always have socks on the needles. I still have a cardigan to sew up and finish off but now I really need to get a pair of patterned socks cast on, yours are lovely. Those baby socks are just so cute and I have a friend who is expecting her second baby.
ReplyDeleteI love the tiny socks! The big ones are also looking good
ReplyDeleteThose socks are so cute. I often wish I knew/cared more about crochet when my children were babies so I could have made more things for them. I'll have to do it for (hopefully) eventual grandchildren. I'm really getting ahead of myself...
ReplyDeleteOoooh,I Love all your knitting and the colours are just lovely.x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful knitting! Also wanted to let you know that you are one of my giveaway winners, Jo! Congratulations! xox
ReplyDeleteCute little socks. I like your plan
ReplyDeleteknit a few rows each day. It will at least get finished this way. Unlike my abandoned projects that are packed away. Cathy x
