i'm working around and around on this little granny square.
the balls of wool i've been using are definitely not as full as they were when i started, and well, it's grooooooowing!
it's nice to see the changes right before my eyes!
i also started a little something... that i was swatching for last week...
a pair of socks! i so LOVE this colour. so SO much!
i couldn't resist not casting on with the wool once i'd finished my swatch... particularly because i'd borrowed this book from my local library and i was desperate to give the technique a go!
it's going quite well, except for the whole not having sufficient time to knit them!
i also kind of wanted distraction from the blasted red sock... i splashed out and purchased a set of decent dpns, in lots of different sizes so that knitting the remainder of the red sock will be a dream. and well, i thought i could start something new while i waited!
however...
my new needles arrived earlier in the week! so now i have no excuses not to finish up that silly red sock quick sticks!
i also may have picked up a couple of extra things from the online store i purchased the dpns from. new supplies to keep knitting my socks two-at-a-time!
what are you creating at the moment? are you a dpn sock knitter? or a magic loop sock knitter?
ooh, nice new needles!!! way to splurge! :P
