Early May entry

One scarf in CPY Kid Merino. 1 1/2 ball was used to create this one - pattern is my idea. Finished it this morning.

Socks for March

Yesterday evening I finished the pair for March. They were done in Drops Delight, and I needed 325 meters to create the pair. I have been playing with the heel, and the gusset decreases... hope the recipient likes them ;-)

March socks in progress

I had to do something different for a while. The shawl is progressing well, but especially on the rainy evenings we had in the past couple of days a bit hard to see. I needed something along the side to play with, and started a pair of socks on Friday evening... LOL! The yarn I am using is Drops Delight

I am from now on planning to note down historical facts...LOL! A personal fact is that I did the gusset decreases in a different way... and I like the result thus far.

I worked on it, on March 21, while watching the World Championship Ice Speed Skating, held in Thialf Stadium in Heerenveen. Sven Kramer won the 10 km in an amazing time. He also won the world title for the fourth time. It is the first time ever in history that a skater wins the world title four times in a row.

Finished February project

The answer:

and the proud owner:

483 meters went into this sweater. I like the result a lot!

February project - progress pic...

It is on long double pointed needles

144 sts

needle size is 3.5 mm (US4)

Guess what it is going to be?

January project

They are done, the Cranberry socks. Strange enough this pair wanted to be knit plain. I tried to design a pattern for it, but it sank away, did not show up or I did not like it... and frogged them time after time.

So plain Cranberry it is... yarn is Schoppel Zauberball. 350 meters are used.

Clap your hands...LOL!

and that is not a problem... Wristwarmers are done in Panda Silk, colour 5110.

To tease Adrienne... the progress picture.

1 ball was used to make these - the hands were an idea from Steven. He made them last summer for me.

This is my CPY project for January - I still have time to do a pair of socks to meet the required yardage.

Update: The ear infection is still not entirely gone - I have to go to the hospital next week to visit the specialist.
