I have been a prolific knitter of late. I picked up my copy of Stefanie Japel's Fitted Knits and finally decided to knit the Bluebell pattern. It is a top down raglan which is knitted in one piece. I am so pleased with the results that I bought some Cascade 220 to make a winter version.
Once I finished the top I decided to take my knitting abilities to another level and try socks. Millions of finished socks on Ravelry must mean that the rest of the knitting community is onto something!
(Excuse the face I am pulling in the above photo - it must of been due to something my husband was saying) LOL. I cast on the socks on Saturday afternoon with bamboo needles. Not good. Dangerous.
I almost did myself a serious injury with those glorified toothpicks! Changed to metal DPNS and I am much happier. Not as sharp and easier to use. I think I know what I am doing after watching some tutorials on YouTube.
