There is an extra week before Christmas this year, and
I'm in great shape!
Finished up the Padina Pavonia Sock.
opened the pattern up. For my SIL for Christmas.
I have a bit done on the socks using the
Morning Hugs pattern.
afterthought heel, but not sure now.
The pattern is easilymemorized, but a little fiddly at first. Hard to see the pattern in the pics...
Started a pair of Ghostwood Mittens to go with the headband
I recently made. Put just a touch of pink at the cast on edge.
Using Berroco Ultra 100% superwash wool, and Plymouth Kid Gloss yarn
held double.
Martha is quite far on her sweater, but found a booboo down
a bit. I'll let her tell you about it....
Martha's own words:
Can you see the mistake in my sweater?
I was cruising along, medicating my tendinitis so I could speed along
on my sweater. It looks good, right? Yeah right, until you look at
the at the pattern! Do you see to the right of the pink cable needle
sticking out, that's supposed to be k1p1 pattern not garter. It changed
all the patterning on that side... 
I'm
not sure what I'm going to do, I think I'll rip down and correct them,
ugh. Maybe I'll time that too see how many years long that takes 
.
I feel her pain. I have to rip my sweater out yet, once the
Christmas knitting is done, I never noticed my mistake till
I looked at the blog.
She is also working on her vibrant socks!
recover from the sweater ripping!
Guess what! Ruth is knitting a little...as long as she
does not do too many purls, she is ok! Yippee!
She will be back on the blog in no time.
