One finished and one in progress




I have not been able to knit much the last few months. I had back surgery in October and have been recuperating since then. I am just now able to concentrate and sit for extended periods of time. So here are two of the projects I have worked on in November.
On the left is a pair of fingerless gloves for my mother for Christmas.
Pattern: purchased from Patternworks; Designed by Barb Kervin for Kollage Yarns
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft; 1 skein
Color: Country Blue
On the right is a partial sock.
Pattern: from the book Socks from the Toe Up; Diamond Gansey Socks
Yarn: Wildfoote Luxury Sock Yarn; 75% washable wool/25% nylon; 2 skeins
Color: Navy Royale
I like the idea of the new blog. I do like knitting a variety of different garments--not just socks. But it will be an adjustment not having a monthly deadline for socks!

You sounds like a fervent knitter: in the needles as soon as you can!
Hopefully your back heals well.
