I didn't post yesterday, despite good intentions, as I got a bit carried away with my new cast on!
Anyway, I am posting today as it is the start of my Christmas break - hurrah!
I have been wearing See You There all week when I can and me and Daniel have managed to get out in the crunchy snow this weekend.
First, I cast on some Christmas socks
Not a brilliant picture, but they are knit in Stranded Dyeworks Christmas yarn from at least a year ago - I have a Christmas Red to do the heel and cuff.My other cast on is a garter marler sweater by Stephen West. It is knit in fingering weight held double, so you can use up all your bits. Which is exactly what I intend to do! Here it is so far.
I am hoping to get a lot done this week, in amongst the Christmas prep!
I hope everyone has a great week, and for those that celebrate, have a brilliant Christmas.
Those socks scream Christmas. Using red for the toes and heels makes them even more Christmas . How nice you have gotten so much wear from your sweater this week. The new cast on sweater is going to be wonderful. Leave it to SW to figure a way to use up leftover sock yarn in a wearable way.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are enjoying your beautiful See You There. Fun socks. I'm looking forward to casting on some Christmas yarn socks that I ordered for myself for Christmas. What a great idea for your leftover bits. Enjoy your Stephen West knit.
ReplyDeleteLooks a bit like gingerbread haus colour, lovely. Hope you are enjoying your time off this week.
