Knitting season

A couple of weeks ago, Ikea announced that the sofa season was back. Did you see the campaign? I’m so jealous of the stash that girl has…

I guess the sofa is always greener on the other side.

It’s been pretty quiet here, on the knitting and crochet front. I didn’t have to take the train that often anymore, and when I was at home, I was sewing more. So quite some UFO’s were kept lying around, waiting for the knitting frenzy to start again. And so it did. Current status of that all? See below.

Finished

• Owl socksIf you look carefully, you can really see owls in that pattern.REALLY. (Just settling a domestic dispute here) If you look even closer, you can even see an owl with a lopsided ear.The pattern also says to add beads for eyes. But beads on socks, and then those socks into shoes? No thank you.
  
• Kiddie cadet. Pretty sturdy.To show everyone who’s boss.

Still on the needles

• Sheepy time cardigan. Nearly finished.
  But just not yet. It’s still a bit large anyway.
  
• Slippers. In my head, they looked way cooler, though.But they do have an antiskid layer.
  I still need to add some elastics, though, since now they fall off.
  
• Glittens. For myself.Priority number 1, since it’s getting pretty cold when riding a bike.
  
• Saucy convertible. Nearly finished, but the yoke is too large,the shirt is too short, and I’m not ready yet to flog it all and make it work. 
  It’s been hibernating for quite some time, and it probably will for a while longer.

Bought

A complete set of bamboo dpns. 

My hubby thinks that by now, I must have all existing material at hand.

NO. NEVER.

To the needles!
