This month I completed my Crazy Zauberball socks. I really really love knitting Crazy Zauberballs. The gradient is always so fun, the yarn is fantastic quality and I just can't help smiling. I did these ones a bit crazy and if you can tell, the gradient goes in one direction on one sock and the other direction on another. See, fun!
With no socks on my needles, I got right to work casting on a new sock. These socks will be knit one at a time from a sock blank. Seeing as Christmas is on the way, what could be better to get into the spirit than some Christmas Confetti yarn! I love the neon green and dark red, it kind of subverts classic Christmas colour expectations. This outstanding sock blank was a purchase I made from Stranded Dyeworks and came all the way across the ocean from the UK.
In an attempt to again save money and also keep knitting, I made the decision to rip another sweater I had previous knit. My personality is like that, I guess I am a process knitter, not a project knitter. So I had a small sweater's quantity of Quince & Co. chickadee in Honey. How lucky am I to get to knit with this delicious yarn twice.
The pattern I chose for round two of the Quince & Co is called Onward by Shannon Cook and part of the collaborative book, with Jane Richmond, called Journey, which I acquired a few months ago.
