A simple time, a simple life and a passion for wool. This has translated into a creative outlet of rug hooking, punch needle and knitting. This is where I write about what I am working on, new designs on the go and exploring the ins and outs of the creative process. Oh yes also some chit chat of daily life, books, baking and pictures of anything and everything....

Socks have arrived on Etsy
Well I finally got around to getting my socks listed. I wanted to have at least 5 pair and Peter did the photography this afternoon. I'll be putting them up sporadically as I get them made, but we will start with these five. This is what I do watching TV - never have idle hands. Since it is September - new shows are starting and there are my favourites. So lots of knitting will get done.
I found a few new self striping ones when I was in Vermont and this weekend there is a trip planned to the local (well 2 hours away in Ottawa) knitting store and that means new wool!
Have a look at Wooly Footsies - hand knit socks for happy feet!
Good nite all.. Joni
oh how I love the socks! I am busy knitting now the weather is getting colder, but I'm afraid I still haven't moved on from straight edges (although I have moved on to a double moss stitch ;-) This year I'm hoping to brave a sock or beret pattern ... watch this space. I'm so excited that I am going to be on the receiving end of your 15 things!
ReplyDeleteAlice - it was great reading your blog and I have sent you an e-mail for your address so that we can get hooked up. I love knitting socks - so easy to carry around and now they have yarns that are spectacular especially the self striping ones - never know what the next pattern will be :) You will love it. Actually I ordered the wool from the UK.. delivery was 4 days to Canada - can u believe it!
