I think it will make fantastic bright cheery socks, just the thing for winter days. It hasn&#8217;t been very wintery here yet. It is still remarkably mild, I haven&#8217;t needed a coat yet and we haven&#8217;t switched our heating on.<\/p>\n<p>I am still plodding on with the <a href=\"http:\/\/heatherknits.blogspot.com\/2006\/09\/one-armed-jumper.html\">Patchwork Jumper<\/a>. Not really worth a progress photograph. The second sleeve is slightly longer than it was but it is dragging rather. I think I need something good on the telly so that I can have a proper go at it and get it finished. In the mean time I have loads of ideas and keep buying one ball of this and one ball of that to try out ideas but I don&#8217;t want to have too many things on the needles at the same time because I find it rather overwhelming. All rather circular as an argument and I think the solution is to get a move on and actually finish the patchwork and then I will feel free to try out lots of other ideas.<\/p>\n<p>My copy of the first issue of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yarnforwardmagazine.co.uk\/\">Yarn Forward Magazine<\/a> arrived last week! Unfortunately there was an error in the printing of charts C &amp; D for the Ariel silk top \ud83d\ude41 I have re-sent the correct charts to Kerrie and hopefully the errata will be up on the website soon. I would love to hear your thoughts on the magazine, particularly on the technical editing, but also generally.<\/p>\n<p>I am starting to get in patterns to edit for Issue 2 which is all very exciting! I was hoping to do a design for Issue 2 but the yarn for it still hasn&#8217;t arrived and the design deadline is in only 2 weeks so it might not be happening at this rate \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catching up on a few old things here, I found this photo on my camera.
