Hey, I'm back!

For some reason, I've been unable to access my old blog or move to new Blogger, but finally I've regained access. Don't know if I'll keep the new one I've subscribed to, or just keep posting here. But I'll give you a quick update on my knitting. I've finally caught the sock knitting bug and so far made one pair in Opal Crazy, colourway 1900. I never knew self-patterning yarn were so much fun! Didn't bother matching the yarn perfectly so the two socks are slightly different, but I don't think it matters much. I've also bought my first hanks of Lorna's Laces, and OMG is it wonderful! Incredibly soft, and the colours are just gorgeous. The one I got is called Gold Hill. So far I've done a whole pair in Crazy, and a sock and a half in Gold Hill. Easter plan are finishing (or at least working on) the wrap cardi, and starting a pair of knee-high socks.

Look, socks!

They are soooo comfortable, I want to wear them all the time... They've been for their first ride in the washer&dryer and came out just fine. Well-behaved yarn...
Here's the Gold Hill pair...

Oh yeah, and I got some Estonian yarn too...don't know what I'll do with it yet, but I'll think of something...
