Oh, knitting world. Just when I make a firm decision not to buy anything for a while, you you throw something at me I can not resist. This time it was a four-pack of yarn from four different breeds of sheep along with a pattern that will allow you to really try them out. This… Continue reading Breed-Specific Fabulosity
The Haunted socks are almost done! I have about an inch of ribbing done and plan on maybe another inch or so, and that’s it. Looking forward to having them finished 🙂 If you are knitting socks, how are they going?
