Sole mates!

After nearly two years in waiting, my sock has found a friend.   I think I am just as much in love...

 

 

Being a me project, these socks took position at the bottom of my list.  I am also famous for Second Sock Syndrome (a knitting conundrum where you just never get arounsd to making that second sock).  But I am glad I did.  There is nothing like lounging about in some soft, pretty, handknitteed socks.  Especially in winter - they are warmer than anything money can buy.

 

 

Lotta thinks they are fabulous too - she slept on the first sock while I knitted the second, and I am sure she thinks they are hers.  She tried to lick them while I took my photos!

 

Knitters - the pattern is easy, and free on ravelry here.

Time for photos!

I have been busy this Easter weekend, as you will soon see. Just thought I'd add a few FO photos to the blog for you all to check out:

Capri pants (nappy cover), more like longies on Mr Short Legs! (He is tall for his age but all body...) A tad overdue to be posted here as I finished them a week or so ago.

YARN: The knittery handpainted 8ply superfine merino in moonlight and denim

PATTERN: Little Turtle Knits "Picky Pants"

My new socks

YARN: Patons PATONTYLE 4ply sock yarn

PATTERN: Knitty "Monkey Socks"

New night nappy for Austy (haven't sewn nappies for ages, but needed some more night weight ones now the weather is cooling down and they don't dry so fast). A non-knitted FO, but thought I'd post anyhow. Used the Very Baby pattern with side snaps.

And here's Austy modelling an ALMOST finished ISE4 scarf (just needs an edging). I had a hard time getting it back off him, so have decided that he needs a scarf for winter too!
