Yay Another Sock Club..... I'm In!


Woke early in anticipation of the sign up for Morag of Vintage Purls Winter Sock Club. I participated last year and enjoyed the little parcels of wool, treats and patterns through the months of June July and August. These sure helped to brighten up those long winter days and nights! As there are only 50 of these, there were nail biting moments as the site crashed and we were all left wondering if our orders got through. All okay and I am very pleased and excited.
Been busy making 2 loaves of bread and I have put a chicken in the crockpot to make curries later on in the day, I do like having meals in the freezer as the least time spent cooking and more time knitting the better!!!
I finished my Theodora Socks I was very pleased with myself as it was my first time finishing a pair of toe ups. Still really like doing cuff down but who knows .... I am already looking through my
stash to cast on another Theodora but in the meantime I have decided to knit a Circular Shrug a larger project than I am used to. I have heaps of wool I got off Trademe a browny fleck that is knitting up nicely although 6 ins of rib with 240 stitches is no picnic!

  1. Wow all that ribbing would drive me insane! Be interesting to see how that shrug turns out. I love that Theodora pattern too, they are quite stunning aren't they?
