I'm flitting between projects at the moment depending on what mood I'm in and how much time I've got. The one thing they've all got in common is that they are very simple, my brain is not in the mood for anything complicated!
I'm doing the waist decreases on my Grace Cardigan, I think I'm going to make it quite a bit longer than the pattern says. My favourite store bought cardigan is around 22 inches from the underarm, Grace is designed to go to 16 inches. I'm not sure if I'll go all the way to 22 inches but I want something that stops below the waistband on my trousers. I've got a long torso (and long legs!) so lots of commercial tops are a little shorter than I'd like. A longer cardigan buttoned up will keep my wobbly bits warmer!
Mr Soaring Sheep's socks are slowly progressing. I've got another 30 rows before I do the heel so over halfway there now. I like working on these in the car as they're simple and portable :-) I'm using the stitch pattern from Jeck socks but using my preferred toe up sock pattern instead.
Linking up with Nicole, Tami and Ginny
the blanket is so pretty! and anything that is easy is right up my alley...i need easy right about now :-)
ReplyDeleteI like having a complicated project or two and then the dead simple ones where I can half pay attention. I like picking up what I'm in the mood for and the time available. Lovely socks :)
ReplyDeleteI'm the same, I've got a lace shawl on the needles but I don't have the concentration abilities at the moment to knit it :-S
DeleteYour blanket is gorgeous! I love how you are placing your colors! :))
ReplyDeleteSo much rain here too:(
ReplyDeleteYour projects look great to me, all three!
Thank you :)
DeleteIts rain, rain and more rain here too. The blanket is looking stunning and the cardigan is a delight. Have a good week with the children.

DeleteGreat progress photos. Do the rain dance and send your rain to California! We so need it.
ReplyDeleteThanks :) The rain has stopped here now, has it reached California yet?
DeleteThe weather has been rotten this week hasn't it. The blanket is looking lovely and fab socks, love the colours!
ReplyDeleteIt's been rubbish! And today it's been ok but I've been stuck in waiting for a parcel! If it's nice tomorrow I think I'll take the children on the bus somewhere, should tire them out!
DeleteI agree about making the sweaters longer. Your sock is very pretty!
ReplyDeleteHehe I can't be doing with a cold tummy lol. Thank you :)
