Finished up a batch of sock wool in the dyepots yesterday. They are outside drying, creating a beautiful rainbow of colour. I've also got a couple of knitting projects on the needles. For the times when I am tired and don't want to think, I have socks for Papa Bear. Just plain k2p2 rib in a nice plain grey. I'm using Wensleydale Longwool for this pair. I have 6 balls in three different colours so Papa will get a few new pairs this fall. And for the times when I can concentrate, I'm knitting another Sheepheid as a request for someone. I did one for myself last year and love wearing this hat. It's light but still warm. It's a Kate Davies design and it uses all 9 shades of Scotland Supreme Jumper Weight. These are all natural colours from Scotland sheep. I love this yarn for both ease of knitting and for the finished fabric.
Another beautiful sunny day and the little and I will run some errands. We're off to the hardware store to get some paint for my kitchen. We're going with Robin's Egg Blue and I'Im hoping for a cheerful effect. This room as well as the adjoining playroom are where I spend all my days. Might as well be pretty & comforting
.
Enjoy!
