Sunday was a comically trying day. My handbag strap broke in a shop when I thought was over the worse of it. The night ended with the shock of the town's lights going out. Note to oneself, buy more candles. The top photo was from Sunday and when the lights went out. I knitted for a bit by candlelight then headed to bed, laughing at the events of the day.
The Autumnal coloured socks are another pair of Vestigials by Hedgehog Fibres. It is a colourway from one of the LHogan Sock Clubs that I dyed. It is a 2 ply high twist merino and nylon yarn. The other sock yarn I dyed as well and is going to be another pair of Vestigials. I dyed this yarn when I first started dyeing yarn. There is a time, a place and a pattern for every yarn. You might be waiting years or minutes but it's great when it all clicks and comes together.
The sweater or sea of stockinette stitch is a top down raglan that I started years ago. I needed another needle that I finally got. It is two lace weight yarns that are knitted together. I dyed both lace yarns. Not that into lace shawls, so I might be knitting up my lace yarns as sweaters and cardigans. I love the marled look at the moment. Marled definition
