Just a quick post today before I go back to trying to make the house presentable for my parents who will be arriving soon to stay til Sunday.<\/p>\n

I seem to have been knitting these socks for a long time, but they are finally finished!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> And now for a better picture of the patterned leg:

The pattern is the Broadripple socks<\/a> pattern from Knitty, well actually it is the version written for sock weight yarn which I’m sure was on Rob’s (the designer) website but I can’t seem to find it at the moment. Also I twiddled a little since I like plain feet on my socks so that I can wear my shoes comfortably, and I like a short row heel. The yarn is Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Sock<\/a> yarn in the Get Knitted colourway. Interestingly I knitted a scarf from the worsted weight version of this yarn in the same colourway but the colours are completely different – the worsted weight is a lot brighter. I’ll get round to taking a picture of the scarf and socks next to each other soon.<\/p>\n

The pattern was a bit of a departure for me as I haven’t knitted lace socks before but it was good fun. I have a whole stack of interesting sock patterns which I am slowly working my way through.<\/p>\n

Anyway, better get back to the tidying. One of the reasons for the parental visit is that Mummy and I are going to a workshop with Horst Schulz on Thursday! I still haven’t finished the patchwork jumper I started for the Knitting Olympics but I am hoping to take along what I have done so far anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
