Wednesday WIP
Other than the EM socks, my only current WIP is my Patina scarf. I decided to change things up on this project, and the result is that I’m almost done! This is supposed to be a nifty scarf with some clever design features and uses 2 100g balls of Schoppel Wool Gradient. This then gets… Continue reading Wednesday WIP
Sock It To Me Monday
Yup – still working on my Elizabeth Montague socks! However, now that I finished Bonbori, I’m expecting things to move along a bit quicker 🙂 There are two options with these socks, normal length or knee length.

Something is Finally Done

Sock It To Me Monday
Still working away on the Elizabeth Montague socks – they are a pretty fun knit so far 🙂 Just a few rows to go until the heel increases start. This pattern uses a fleegle heel, which I have not done before, so I’m interested to see how this goes. I’m pretty happy with my usual… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday
