Knitting content

Even if it is ever so small.

Not that I have not knitted, since last spring, when I last posted actual knitting here, because I did, but most of that knitting was done in the car, and most of it was utterly boring, around and around stocking knitting, as in the fall of 2024 I sold all but one pair of my historical stockings and I wanted to replenish the stocking stocks (pun intented). 

This year I wholeheartedly wanted to do my New Year's sweater, but I spectacularly failed that one, I did not like it and I frogged it, so to get back my mojo, I wanted someting small and colorful... and it was... yes a pair of socks, but unlike the historical knee high ones, these were short, colorful, and would have been quick, if I wouldn't kept putting them off for other, more urgent stuff.

When we left for London, it only needed a few rows from its ribbing, and a couple of nights ago, when we were watching TV and I was between bigger projects, I finished them. 

Simple, toe up, short row toes and heels, stockinett socks, with "contrasting" toes, heels and cuffs, which I knit wider, because I often turn them down. 

You might remember las spring I got some orange shoes, and knitted some socks to wear with them, and this pair makes another addition to the circulation. 

Who-knows-what-brand leftover bits of sockyarn, my own pattern/recepie, and 2,25 mm Knit Pro Zing needles.
