Look! Socks! Plain and simple: toe up, short row heel and knitted in Rowan 4 ply. I actually started them back when I moved to London but there was a bit of sulking and ignoring (noticing a pattern here?) when I managed to cast off too tightly on one. But my co-blogger (the silent one :pokes her with a knitting needle till she posts: sigh) came round this weekend to help me do some spring cleaning and we ended up sorting out my piles of WIP/almost FO and finishing some of them off.

I’m wearing them right now and they’re lovely and warm.

I’ve also recast on for the cardigan with the correct maths and look forward to a more successful attempt this time. I’ve also managed to locate a pencil in the depths of my pens and have plans to sketch out some possible patterns for the accidental yarn purchases I made recently (once my fingers defrost, brrrr!). :rubs hands:

And, my online shopping was delivered this evening. There’s an awful lot of things in there for baking, so hopefully there’ll be some more posts on that front coming up soon. I’m even investigating the interesting world of vegan baking, so stay tuned for that one.
