What did I do after finishing that pair of worsted weight socks? Immediately cast on another, of course! This one’s for the boy to wear with his Doc Martens. I didn’t have enough of the Mountain Meadow Tweed left, so I pulled some Cascade Eco Cloud from deep stash. It’s not superwash so they’ll definitely need to be handwashed but it’s fine, I’ll just throw them in when I wash my handknit socks. I am using the Mountain Meadow leftovers for accents though.
The toes will also be the darker brown. He says they’re “vibey”, which is apparently a good thing. However, now I am tired of brown so I need to switch back to something lighter and brighter! Also my new puzzles came today so I have something besides knitting to keep me occupied.
Hope you’re all coping well today. I’m currently in the “this is never gonna end” state of mind, which hopefully will pass quickly. If not, there’s wine. Well, honestly, there’s wine either way.
Yarn and button puzzles! I love it! 😀 Yup. it’s a good time for wine.
Aren’t they fun?? But wine and puzzles don’t always go well together! 😉
True, not always. Though… one of our favorite wineries put a puzzle in their tasting room for a while. We had so much fun working on it while sipping our wine!
Wait…there are knitting themed puzzels? I need to get some of those. I have been trying to ration my wine to a glass or two a night because I feel like I could drown a lot of sorrows lately.
Yes there are!! Check out springbok.com. Lots of variety in pictures & difficulty level. And I’m with you on the wine. Some nights it’s a little too easy to pour that extra glass!
I couldn’t wait for wine-o-clock last night. I had two glasses because we were celebrating. Where do you get knitting themed puzzles?
I must have been celebrating with you– I had a glass and a half! I ordered my puzzles directly from Springbok.com.
Don’t you love worsted weight socks? They fly off the needles and are so cozy to wear.
Very cool puzzles and thanks for the link! Your son’s sock is looking great 🙂
Love the puzzles! Will they all be framed as well?
Sadly, no, I don’t have enough wall space for all of them!
Puzzles! I love the lavender one! I ought to take out some puzzles to do. Hopefully the pup will keep away from them…
I worry about that too! One of these days I’ll go to finish a puzzle and be a piece or two short.
