WWKIPD and Rainbow socks
Last Saturday was WWKIPD and a group of knitters met in St Stephen's Green in Dubin.The knitters were from Ireland and many other parts of the world. It was a beautiful hot sunny day and we gathered in the Summer House which was shaded and cool and perfect for knitting and chatting to everyone. A really enjoyable day. Thanks to all who organised it.
Twas my sister M's http://www.craftydogs.blogspot.com/ birthday yesterday and I knit these socks and a little bag as part of her present. I think she liked them and I was pleased with the result. I used yarn from http://www.scandinavianknittingdesign.com/ called 'Fabel' superwash. I have not used it before so don't know how it will wear. The colours are really nice
Currently I am deciding what project to start next. I have also knit a couple of washcloths recently but completely forgot to take photos. I think next will be a sweater for myself in a lovley lime green/white soft cotton which I purchased earlier this year at Avoca's yarn sale. But I need to cast on for a smaller project also as I think I will get bored with this stocking stitch.
