WIP Wednesday

I've only got one new project this week. Today is Mr Soaring Sheep's birthday and I said I'd make him a pair of scrappy socks. However, when I was looking through my stash I showed him some of my sock yarns and asked if he'd like any of them instead and he chose this gorgeous rainbow colourway from The Knitting Goddess

The pink and blue is a sleeve for a colourwork cardigan for my 2 year old. I've not picked it up at all this week but think I'll give it some more attention this evening as I was enjoying it.

The green squares are for my blanket project. I'm almost 1/4 of the way through making the squares :-) It's going to be very colourful...

I also got some fluffy post this week. I ordered this yarn at the end of August to make a Christmas jumper for Mr Soaring Sheep but it was out of stock in the quantity I needed. It's Cascade 220 Heathers so has a gorgeous fleck to it

It's going to be knitted into an Alec XL which is a gorgeous pattern by Sarah Ronchetti. It's going to have to wait a while though because I've got quite a few projects lined up first. Must knit faster...

I'm linking in with Tami's WIP Wednesday posts as usual. I'm looking forward to reading what other people have been up to lately. First though Mr Soaring Sheep wants to go cycling round Grafham water, oh joy...!
