These ones are knitted with a sock yarn that popped up in my social media feed…

February Finished.
February was wonderfully productive, I’m delighted to say. I feel like 2019 has brought me back my design mojo, which was waning a little at the end of 2018.
Clockwise from top left (click links for patterns, where available):
- My Dolly Socks, in wool and cashmere superwash – the perfect prettiness for Spring.
- My first pair of gloves, knitted exclusively for me. I haven’t bothered with the pattern as they were my first pair, but I’m already looking forward to designing some beauties, now that I have these ones under my belt. Motto? Feel the fear and do it anyway 😉
- Aphrodite’s new jumper: the Juno’s Friend Jumper. And apparently we’re to expect a late blast of snow in a few days’ time, so that will come in handy. My beloved husband tells me I need to make her a pink spotty one next. Watch this space…
- My Lilac and Lime Bobble Socks, in a not-at-all lilac and lime colourway, which I love to bits with my Duckfeet.
- My husband’s woodland jumper, already tried and tested in the woods, and the pattern for which I have yet to write up, but WILL. I promise <3
I’m already excited to see what March will bring.
Happy knitting, lovelies! <3
A passionate affair
Once again, please forgive the knees 😉
But look…
I mean, LOOK.
Stripes, pure wool, bursting with colour…
What’s not to love?
And once again, they are just perfect with my old faves, the Duckfeet.
And just in case you were worried…. there are more on the needles. I am too in love to stop just yet.
Drops Big Delight provides those beautiful undulating colours, and Drops Nepal provides the striped relief.
Bliss
And the next ones….? Expect greens…. pinks…. browns…. *wistful sigh*
If you fancy a pop at knitting them, the pattern is here 💜
Cozy Toes
And snuggly calves.
And knobbly knees.
It’s all a bit frantic around here just now, with Christmas wool coming out of my ears…
But I took about 120g of Drops Big Delight, a pair of 5.5mm circulars and a few hours out over the last few days and made myself a long yearned for pair of boot socks.
Forgive the knees and marvel at the beautiful self-striping magic…
See you on the Yule flip-side (and may it be merry and bright) 💜
