Even more FO's (including more socks)

This lovely pair of Jaywalker socks was made from Trekking XXL sock yarn.

I am running quite short of this type of yarn at the moment so I will have to pull my finger out and find a supplier who can get me some of this yarn and get it for me quickly.


This pair of socks are made from pure wool that I bought from The Knitting Yarn Shop at a ridiculously low price for pure wool.

The pattern once again was from my Patons Book 1239 (Patonyle accessories for the whole family) knitting book that I won way back when.

The sock patterns in the book are sooooooooo easy that even a first time sock knitter can even follow them.

This pair of socks is already in the shop that Katt and I knit for to be sold.


I've been on a bit of a stash enhancement lately as I've been knitting quite a few pairs of gloves (with and without fingers) for the shop that Katt and I knit for lately.

Most of these have been ordered but I've also knit some that were just for general sale as well. (Nothing like keeping ahead of the orders).

The lovely knitting under this yarn is part of a UFO that has been on and off the needles for about 23 years.

The squares are knit in a log cabin design and it takes 35 of these squares to make a single bed cover. So far I have 20 squares finished and the other 15 squares are in varying stages of being knit.

I am using bits and pieces of yarn from wherever I can scrounge it up for this project as I don't want it to be uniform in colour.

I looooooooooooooove the random effect that these squares make so it will be interesting to see when I have finished it in the next hmmmmmmmmmmm let me see maybe 10 years the rate it has been going so far.

Each square is about 30cm (12 inches for the uninitiated)on each side and I'm hoping to crochet them together with black yarn.

There has as I mentioned above only been scraps of yarn used for the squares so there is also a mutitude of yarns used as well ranging from wool, acrylic and also a bit of mohair as well as cotton.

This is a Garlerlac Dishcloth that I thank Trek for kindly putting the link on her blog for.

The link goes to Dave's blog and he has the pattern there for everyone.

I have made 2 of these now and they are sooooooooooooooo quick to knit.

This is one of the many pairs of gloves that I've made lately.

I was making them that quickly at one stage that I was taking them to the shop and not taking photos of them.

In the last few weeks I've made 5 pairs of them as well as doing other knitting when I could.

I think I've rambled on enough for tonight so I will be off for now.

Until next time keep on knitting.
