I was just looking through some old photos and stumbled over one I was supposed to show
badylugz but couldn't find! So here are the socks I knitted from her lovely wool, for my Dad for his birthday last year.
Check out her other beautiful hand-dyed wools at her
etsy store. While you're there, you can check out
my store too - though I've only just set it up so there are only two girls' skirts for sale. There will be much more next year when I have more time**.
I started knitting a pair of lacy socks yesterday and got halfway down the foot when I realised they were just completely huge! I am using the right size needles and everything, and my tension looks fine, but it's massive. Grrrrrrrrr.... So now I have to start again, this time with smaller needles. *sigh*
**I am sooooo looking forward to next year, when D is at Primary School and E in 4yo kinder for 11 hours per week
