I know it’s been a while since I posted – I was in Georgia for a week, and have been frantically busy since I got back. But at least I was able to get in quite a bit of knitting on the trip.
I made good progress on the Alpine Lace Scarf, and I’m really liking the bright coral color of the yarn:
Not shown are my Austermann Step socks – I turned the heel and am doing the gusset decreases.
My last one is actually an FO, not a WIP, since I finished it at SnB last night:
Pattern: Horcrux Socks (Ravelry Link), by Susan Lawrence
Yarn: Lion Brand Wool-Ease Heather, color 403, 1 skein
Needles: US 5 (3.75mm) DPNs
Made for: My mom, if they fit her. (I couldn’t measure, as they’re supposed to be a surprise.) Otherwise my husband has dibs on them – he has no problem with the lace, and they fit him well.
Modifications: I made an extra zig (or is that zag?) for length.
Cabled Sheep lives in Salt Lake City, Utah, where she enjoys knitting, cooking, and munching veggies out of the garden. She never tires of Utah's glorious landscape.
I say ‘zag’, since if you’re starting at the bottom, the first one’s a ‘zig’…
Beautiful lace!
Love the lace…where’s the other sock? You had two last night.
Beautiful projects! I love both of the colors!
The shawl is gorgeous!!!
That scarf is gorgeous! I want to make the Horcrux socks someday too.
That is a lovely pink. I should make another pair of horcrux. They were fun and wonderful.
Welcome back!
Was the weather more springlike in Georgia??
Happy birthday, Cheryl! It’s a good day for a celebration.
