Blogmas Day 16

Hello friends, here we are 2/3 of the way through Advent. Today I don't have a shawl or surprise package to share with you as I have been distracted by two other pieces of knitting.

First, since it is Sunday is a sock.

I have been rattling along with this and have finished the foot up to the point of the gusset. These socks have been a fast knit using the Milkshake pattern as a template and adding 3 x 1 garter rib for a bit of texture.

Secondly, if you follow me on Instagram you will have seen this photo

There is a pattern I have been admiring for some time on Ravelry and yesterday I decided to bite the bullet and purchase it. The pattern is Adventurous Wrap by Ambah O'Brien. I then went stash diving and pulled out these beauties, in the foreground is Royd Moor cashmere in Perriot and behind are a selection of Blue Moon Indigo minis by The Border Tart. This wrap is mindless TV knitting and last night whilst watching Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 I got quite a bit done.

See you tomorrow

Happy crafting

Mary
