Here's the back of my calbe knit sweater! I finished up to the shoulders and have the neck on a holder. I put it on......and I guess I'm ok with it. I'm not a big "sweater" person, so I'm not jumping up and down about it. The reason I made it was to learn cables and to read a pattern a little better. As long as I learn something, I'm pretty happy! Because the yarn is thick, this seems to be going pretty quick!
Here's sock #1 from the cuff down sock pattern. I love this yarn! It's called Sockotta and the pattern is so great! Whenever I'm making this in public, people stop and admire the yarn. I think I'm going to "gift" these to me! They are so fun!
Here's sock #2.....just waiting to be finished! He's sooooo jealous that sock #1 was done first! I keep telling him that I'm trying, but to no avail!
With the fall temps approaching.....it makes me want to stay in the house and knit more. But I was a very good girl today and finished staining and varnishing my front window, and I also did the same to the front door. With all the cold weather and salt the front door looked as if it was about to break into pieces! However, I saved it and hopefully we'll get a couple more years out of it!
So what are my knitting goals for November?
- Finish the cabled sweater!
- Finish my socks!
- Work on Joan's order for felted bags!
- Start the "blush" project from knit pixie and finish by Thanksgiving!
- Start and finish Amy's scarf for Christmas!
If I get all those things done.....then I'll be one happy knitter!
