I got the itch...

Yes, I’ve got the itch, yet again, the itch for starting new projects. Don’t all us knitters get that inner itch that makes us want to start knitting every luscious gorgeous squishy yarn we set our eyes on? Or seeing that FO that just makes us want to cast on immediately? I have that, it’s an itch, as serious one, and can only be calmed by that lovely feeling of casting on. I should say that I always have that itch. I’m always juggling many different projects all at different stages. One benefit for doing that is there are times you have multiple FO’s, but there’s always that new cast on. So now I started a new pair of socks, I have a pattern I’ve been designing and now am knitting it. I’m pretty excited about the design & concept for these socks, they are different than socks that I’ve seen, at least I’ve yet to see socks like this. I won’t say that the concept hasn’t been done prior, because I haven’t seen all the tons of sock patterns out there, but I’ve seen enough to know that it’s not a known concept. I casted on two different toes, the pattern will be toe up, and I’m leaning towards the right sock, it has a nicer toe shape, while the left sock is too boxy for me.



I’m using the Pico Accuardi sock yarn, natural dyes, the color is “Lantern”. Now that I’ve settled on the toe I want, the fun part comes, the pattern! I’ll share more pictures as I make more progress. Of course I’m still knitting away on the February Baby Sweater, that’s a good knit for mindless knitting, its just repeat pattern continously.

Since FO’s have been touched on, I’ll share this cutey, which has actually been done for awhile, I just hadn’t shared it, my bad 8)









This is one of the cutest little guys, a transformer knit, turns from a Frog to a Turtle. My kiddees are too big to want this, but I was like my inner kid deserves this. I carry back and forth my home office and my work office. He just makes me smile 8-) He’s knit with O’Wool yarn in two different shades, Jade and Periwinkle. I better get my rest now, Froggy and Turtle say bye for now 8-)
