We are getting so close to the end of the Seventh Year of Projects!! I am thrilled at how well I have kept up this year! And I am getting excited for next year!
This past week I finished my Vanilla Socks.
I spent some time on my new design but I am sorry to say you will have to wait some time to see what I am working on. I promise to show it off once I can!
I worked up a few pet snuggles - 5 to be exact. The top three were done in May and the bottom two were done in June. These crochet up pretty quickly and are a nice change of pace (and work my hands differently) from knitting! I have a couple ends to weave in yet but that won't take much time at all.
And I broke down and cast on something new... I signed up for Tour-de-Sock again this year and they released the Warm Up pattern on Friday. I like it and decided to give it a go! So far I have one and a half cuffs done. Once the cuffs are done the color work begins! I am using a darker burgundy to go along with this pink speckled!
I suspect this upcoming week will have me focusing on my Tour socks and my secret design. Come back next week and see my progress
There will be some happy critters with their new snuggles.
ReplyDeleteThe new socks are pretty and I ca almost see the burgundy with the pink in my mind. I like it.
I am loving the color combination although it is not too contrasty.
DeleteOooh - those Miriam socks you're warming up with look cool, Karen.
ReplyDeleteThey are a fun knit!
Deleteare you on a team for tour-de-sock? I am cheerleading for Team Double Double, eh? I should check out the warm up pattern (like I need to cast on something else right now,lol)
ReplyDeleteI am on Team Maybe? Maybe Not. The warm-up pattern is fun!
