I realized it was Wednesday only after finding the Aldi ad in the paper 10 minutes ago. This week has been crazy, and it’s amazing I’ve accomplished as much knitting as I have.
I’ve been plugging away on my twizzler socks. I would be getting more done, but my hands get so cold at the playground. If you have any advice on thin gloves that work for knitting please share it with me. I really like how these socks, but I’m ready to be done with them. They have been on the back burner for so long they are taking a long time. I might spend the week focusing on them so I can finish them up.
I’m flying along with The Weekender. I’m not going to bother with a full picture of it right now, because I should have finished photos to show you soon. I only have about 10 rows of ribbing to go on the second sleeve. I can’t wait to start wearing it.
At some point this week I started a pumpkin hat for my niece who will be making an appearance around March. I can’t believe it is the middle of October and I hadn’t made her anything yet this month. I will probably pick this up again once I finish my sweater. Pumpkin hats are one of the only times I use acrylic yarn. I’ve had the same yarn in my stash for ages. If I ever knit it all up I’ll be switching to something squishy and natural.
Have you been knitting this week?

Everything looks fantastic!
I’ve yet to find any gloves that work for me when knitting. I’ll be interested to see if anyone has a good suggestion:)

Maybe I’ll start reading at the playground instead of knitting.

You are so fast! I am going to start my knitted ornaments for my students I think. It’ll be nice to get them started early this year!

It is easy to be fast when you give up cleaning your house and ignore all responsibilities. It also helps that my kids are really good at playing at parks, so I get a good chunk of knitting in then.

I used to read at the swimming pool because of that!

No clue on gloves, but maybe thin gloves paired with one of those knitting rings. Ive seen them on Etsy.

All your projects are looking great! You are making really good progress on everything, too! Maybe wristers or fingerless gloves?
Still working on my SIL’s socks and making slow progress on the Perfect Blend shawl at work 🙂
