Still focusing on warm toes
The snow isn’t letting up. It is what I get I guess for living this far North, but I am growing tired. Not a whole lot I can do about it other than whimper softly into my yarn stash.
How to brighten it up? Knit orange socks!
I am working on a toe-up pattern for a simple sock. This is the second draft. They make me smile. I also love the feel of this yarn (Indulgence from Knitting Fever) and this style of sock. Happiness all around.
I also finally got photos taken of the slippers that have kept my toes warm all winter. Based on the Malabrigo Loafer, but with a dense, double-thick sole to help them last more than one season.
Now to get ready to face another week. I think it will be a week of resampling mittens for a redraft and new photo shoot. Whee!
