Tuesday, March 24th, 2009 | design, knitting, socks, sweaters

Where does the time go at night? I always intend to go to bed at a reasonable hour, but it pretty much never happens! Anyway, I’m just dropping by with some photos of current projects…

These are actually just off the needles but not quite ready for a photoshoot – another pair of tall (taller than the last ones!) socks in Dream in Colour Smooshy. Mmmm!

And a new sweater – one of several that have sprung up on the needles! This one’s going to be a top-down, circular yoked sweatercoat in cascade220 heathers, held double. I’ve got lots more than this now – bulky knits are so fast! I’m aiming to have this done in time to be worn in that in-between time where it’s cool enough for a jacket, but not too hot yet.

I’ve managed about 12″ of body from the underarm, and I only started this one last Thursday night! I might just make it.

I love Smooshy! It makes the best socks.

I love the yarn you’re using for that sweater, too.

Those socks look lovely! I love the seam detail along the back(?) of the leg.. Pattern???

Oooohh you said the magic words! Top-down, circular yoke and coat. Is this an original pattern? I can’t wait to see it.

Lovin’ the sweater…are you doing it from a pattern or from the head as a “fit to self raglan”?

I want to put those socks on Right Now. I too am blessed with substantial calves, and I second the request for the pattern! Please?
