As 2025 winds down, my body and mind are reviewing the year. Every year, we always think the days flew by quicker than last year—does time really speed up as you grow older?
It was a busy year for us! My brother said he was bored and didn’t know what to do with his days. Sad!
Our days are so full, I long for the rocking chair at times—peace to sit and do nothing!! Well, actually I can not do nothing—my hands need to be knitting! Or spinning!
During the year, I enjoyed many lattes in my favorite cups—during holiday season, my cup is Mrs Claus
This morning my latest knitting adventure is November’s Jane Austin socks—yes, of course, I’m late—soon, this will be completed—just toe section to finish. Finishing the toe is always a hassle! That Kitchener stitch is a Problem for me! I lay open the grafting plan and begin—off to a good start— then someone asks a question or makes a comment and ………….I’m lost. There needs to be a better way to close that toe if you knit top down!! Maybe, I’ll do toe up from now on!!
This isn’t entirely true! There is a long list of wonderful things I want to do! I promise myself NOT to begin a new UFO—let’s finish up some UFOs!
What should be started first?
How about FLG (fingerless gloves)? Haven’t knit those in a while. Pick a pattern….
I’ve found a way to use my handspun
Silk blend yarn; it has been aging for years! I like the whole color look—besides,
I’m 2 lazy to search for small amounts of yarn! Maybe for next pair will be different yarns.
I like using my short needles!
Working second mitt on two circulars
One UFO down
Using my hand spun silk yarns on Advent socks designed by Becky Greene, Christmas Tea Party.
I wasn’t sure that the silk yarns would work for this pattern—I was sure wrong!
