I have been busy with a little bit of this, that, and everything inbetween.
The Pixel Socks for my daughter is coming along very nicely now, and I only have a few more inches to go before the cuff and cast off.
Then I had a very quick swap, with included a little something handmade and knitting notions. This was loads of fun, as I visited my LYS on the day they were unpacking new goodies. So my swap buddy got the latest in needles and needle cases, and a row counter. I also got her some stitch markers, and other local goodies, like one of my favourite magazines, and of course, sweeties. I made some goodies that presents the upcoming seasons, Teatowel with Fall colours, and potholders for the Winter Festive Season.
We had a chilly weekend, and it was the perfect excuse to relax again with some embroidery.
And as usual, what would a knitter be without more socks in the future. I have a buddy to knit for, and she really loves dark or bright colours. I found this really nice, very deep dark purple, for socks, of course. And I knitted her a little bag in the meantime, I think it needs a little zipper to close it.
That little bag is soooo sweet! Love the colour! x
Thank you. One of my buddy’s fav. colours are lime green. So when I got this, I thought it was ideal for her. 🙂
Sounds like a great swap. I love your socks!!!
Thank you. Need to finish this pair now, as I have a buddy to knit for. 🙂
What a lovely collection of things for your swap buddy, some very thoughtful things. You’ll be glad to finish those socks I would imagine – they look beautiful.
I will be very happy to finish the socks for my daughter, and I image she as well. 😉
Just to start the next pair, but this time only in one colour!
Hooray. Can’t wait to see those socks. Happiness all around.
Thak you.
lol. I am seemingly always working on a pair of socks. 🙂 I do love knitting socks, they are so much fun to make.
Cute stitchery and the green bag is awesome!!
Thank you. Loving the stitchery, wish I had more time to work on this. 🙂
I hope my buddy likes the green bag as well.
Must be the time of year when we want to cram a whole lot of things into a day, week or month. Love all your new stash and the socks are coming along nicely. Such pretty colors.
Thank you. 🙂
And yes, most definitely that time of the year, wanting to do so such, the days just seem to short. 🙂
