Progress pics

First a holiday gift. It's finished, but needs a partner for enough yardage, so I'll show it again later. It's #28 in our family series. Each stocking is different, but follows the same basic design. About 200 yds of worsted weight acrylic were used.

Socks in progress
SKA Mystery Sock - I'm knitting one at a time, because of other commitments. Yarn is Hand Maiden Casbah, and the designer is Lisa Stichweh.

Second sock is from the Ram Club, called Alpine Hiker designed by Charles Voth. As the club implies, the yarn came with the pattern. It is from the Unique Sheep. I had to reknit the foot, because it was too small, but this try fits. They're for DH.

October Projects finished.

The Trailing Vines Mitts are finished and the pattern is available on Ravelry. It will be available on Patternfish soon. Yarn is Regia 6-ply, 3.0 mm needles. About 150 yards used.

I also finished a Christmas stocking for a customer. 190 yards of yarn. The yarn is from a huge house sale haul years ago, cheap worsted weight acrylic. Needles: US #7/4.5 mm. This is the latest in a series of stockings for this family.

I will have finished projects for October!! I WILL!

Actually, I'll have 2 projects, which will add up to enough yardage to count. First there are the fingerless mitts. The yarn is Regia 6-ply on 3.0 mm needles. I have designed these and the pattern will be available on Ravelry and Patternfish.

This is part of a Christmas stocking for a customer, the latest in her family series. I designed it a few years ago, and am knitting hte same design again with a couple of modifications.
