Yarn Re-aquainted
After I had thought that all was lost and that I should never be able to finish the mystery pair of socks which I began over a year ago, look what I should find (in a box clearly labelled 4-ply sock yarn’, no less).
This is the remaining half a skein of Schoppel-Wolle Admiral Ombré which only Saturday seemed certain to be lost forever, despite actually being in the most obvious place that I should have looked. I seem to not have trusted that I might have put this yarn somewhere so sensible, but it was staring me in the face whilst I went rummaging for something else.
So, as I am just wrapping up a magazine commission and am looking for a bit of simple TV knitting it seemed like absolutely the perfect opportunity to put this recent fortunate discovery to use, and would be a very sensible use of my evening knitting time…
…But instead I cast on a new pair of mitts.
Glad you found it…love the stitch on the mitts….
Did you ever receive the little something from that blog thing we did awhile ago? Just want to make sure you got it…
No, it never did arrive 🙁 I hadn’t realised it had been sent.
LOL. That sounds like me last week. I had so many WIPs that I felt like I wasn’t really making progress on anything… So I cast on something new ; )
I have that same yarn, deep in stash. Glad you found yours!
It was sent in late May…the other two received theirs…I wonder what happened to it…I’m sorry….
I love the stitch pattern for the mitts! I also am sometimes overwhelmed with my current projects and usually convince myself that starting something new will fix everything. Ha. I’m so hilarious like that.
I had to laugh at the obvious choice to knit the other sock and the choice to cast on. Been there, DO that.
That’s the fun of knitting! 😉 (sjn821)
