This will be a short and sweet update as I have been battling (and losing) with a migraine.
I have made a little more progress on my 54 pickup lap blanket.
and I started on my Contrapunctus socks. It was a new shortrow heel construction and I really liked how intuitive it was. Now I am just knitting to the toe - which will be a shortrow toe construction that is also new to me.
I did take a 'me day' on Friday and was able to buy some yarn to try with the Wildernesse shawl.
And yes, I did buy some more stitch markers....I used to have 60 of these little coloured rings, but while working on the 54 pickup I used what I had and couldn't find any more....Really, I do have a problem with buying stitch markers that you can read about here.
I did the smallest amount of spinning - I am on the 2nd bobbin so I will have enough to ply, but it is slow going. I just don't seem to have much spinning mojo these days.
So that is my week. I wasn't able to read everyone else's posts last week, so as soon as this migraine settles I will get caught up with everyone.
Yea!! If I access your blog through your Ravelry page I can comment!! Convoluted but works. Can you have too many stitch markers?? I don't think so. Love that sock pattern. How interesting to have that design go down the leg. Beautiful purples for your next shawl. Hope your migraine gets better soon. I was lucky. I didn't have true migraines, so chocolate almost always worked to relieve my "bad headaches".
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty sock. Lots of texture to it. Your spinning looks good. Your yarn acquisition is pretty. Looking forward to seeing the shawl.
