Well I made a friend for it so now I have a pair. They were stunningly simple to make. I probably should put a slight bits of elastic round the foot hole but it doesn’t need much. If I was to start again I would do garter stich on the band round and moss stitch […]

Ok. As a first attempt I’m really pleased with this. Its made out of a cotton like string which is sadly a lot more fragile than I realised but its a simple stocking stitch slipper. It might do better with a slight but of elastic around the ankle hole but on the hole its a […]

Well. As you can see I have completed the sock. The pale pink side is a bit saggy, but it fits. Its not bad for a first effort. I did the cuff, heel and toe in single kniting to give it simplicity but ok so its not an out of house sock. And yes. Now […]

Ok. This is not the best picture but you can see the broken tip. Its lying next to the snapped end. Given the set only came with 5 needles per size. How fecking irritating is this? I have done a whole 3 bloody rounds and a new set of needles is now broken. What a […]

Now. The smart amongst you will spot I made a sock, the whole one I finished earlier in the week. It has a rolled top which is quite nice and I solved the gaps on the heel turn too. The second doesn’t match the first in any way. I’m aware of this the 3 socks […]
