May 2016

May is a good month. I see a pattern of being especially inspired to get crafty in May. 

This month I knit some socks using a contrasting toe, heel, and cuff. This bright mini paired with a speckled skein was put together by Kim of The Wacky Windmill and it couldn't be more perfect. I used a heel flap with eye of the partridge.

Since I am so drawn to purple, a purple with a sprinkle of glitter was irresistible to me. I like this colourway so much, that everything I thought to pair it seemed to detract from the loveliness of the yarn. So I went with a single skein project, which was Menehune by Mel Ski.

I knit and finished a pair of socks in a Patons socks yarn I nabbed only because they were on sale. They come in 50 gram balls, so were conveniently ready to cast on without breaking out my yarn swift.

That's it - Happy crafting! Nic ♥
