Not So Busy Now
Well, work has calmed down and it sure feels nice. So I have some knitting progress to show you. This is a “Two Fer”. The socks are done:
And are they comfy! While it may pill at first, the Knitpicks Bare sure is soft stuff. I know that the pilling calms down on the Merino Style after a bit of wear, I am assuming it’s the same for this yarn. That’s fine, it was dangerously cheap to begin with.
The second project is, of course, The Road to Golden Teal and Grey v2. The first one, being shrunk, has been sent to my sister. This second version had a chance to be perfected so I made some changes. I added side-shaping and more decreases to the top. I think I still need to make the top a little smaller, it *just* shows my bra straps on the sides. But still, done enough to say it’s done!
To reward myself for being such a good finisher I started a new sweater to balance out my knitting karma.
This is the very new beginnings of the Bubble Pullover from Knitting Nature. I’ve wanted to knit this for a while, I’m glad I finally get to start it!
Next time we can go over my recent stash additions. Hey, when it’s getting knit up this quickly I have to add more to make up for it, don’t I?
