Knitting on

So yeah I've feeling things here and decided a bit of retail therapy is alright. I'd been feeling nostalgic about my knitting and I think I have reached the phase of what happens if I cannot get this yarn, knitting needles, or thing anymore. I never understood when others lamented yarn being discontinued, now I understand that feeling of loss. We have lost so much. So before some thing have gone I thought they could do a wee stop at my house. I got four skeins of Urth yarns and three of Gusto. Along with a new tape measure, some new needle tips and a new set of sock needles. 

While I was waiting for that to arrive I cast on a sock for Hubby. This is Plymoth Yarns Happy Feet that I received as a gift from a coworker back in New York. I think they will make fine socks for him.

I even started weaving in ends on my True Colors shawl. There are so may ends and I really think I am at least halfway through. But fun fact I discovered today is that my stucco wall works as velcro to hang shawls for pretty pics. I think this is one of my favorite shawls that I have made. 

Once my new sock needles showed up I had to cast on some Gusto yarn I bought a while back. I was a bit disappointed with the coloring of this yarn as the color is super saturated, there is white peaking out all the time, but when I was looking at yarn the other day this is a gradient and I just need to see this knit into socks for me. I think maybe the white will give it a bit of tweed effect. Guess we will know soon.

Burt would like you to know fireworks are stupid. Under the bed is Ok if Momma lies there and pets my fur though.

May your knitting help you find peace and joy.
