Sox in the Making

While I have free time during our daily outings

this pair of purpley-striped ribbed sox 

are stashed in the console between the front seats and

get a couple more rounds completed each trip.

Eventually they'll get finished

in the meantime my hands are kept busy.

You know - Idle Hands Are The Devil's Workshop

This goldenrod pair is Pointelle 

 and is on it's THIRD beginning

and now being knit using Cascade Heritage superwash wool.

For some reason this particular  pattern is not co-operating with me.

The first two attempts were with Jojoland Melody yarn

and after the second time of ripping them back

I decided that Jojoland Melody was JINXed for 

Pointelle.

So I've begun once again and

 hoping third time [and a yarn change] is the charm. 

This minty morsel is Hedera

Our Rav Cookie A's KAL is a little different from last year's Cookie KAL.

After a group vote, Pointelle AND Hedera are the patterns chosen for this first KAL.

As long as a pattern is begun in January

we have until the end of February to finish either

one or both in order for them to be eligible

for a chance to win [picked by Mr. Random Generator] 

great things

from the individuals who have donated such lovelies as YARN.

Today is a snow day - have 4-5 inches of snow.
