I also finished my Yarntini socks earlier in the week.

\nThe colour is wrong, wrong, wrong. They’re actually much brighter in person, and I love them!
\nI also have a decent amount of yarn left over, so if I can find a complimentary colour for toes and heels, I may be able to manage another pair.
\nThis means that I finished two pairs of socks in September, yay me! However, I didn’t let that stop me casting on for the next pair.

\nMarina Piccola<\/a> in Fleece Artist Basic Socks yarn. While the socks are nice, I wanted to use this picture to show off some of my recent etsy purchases.
\nI love my Sunnyboy bag! (I actually have two!) It’s the perfect size for my sock knitting, and I love the knitting related fabric it’s made from. I got this from my friend Quilting Mick’s<\/a> etsy store, Buttontree Lane<\/a>.
\nAnd the other item is my super cute new DPN holders. Here’s a close up.

\nI got these from Compulsive Crafter<\/a> on etsy, and I got a little pair of pigs too, that I forgot to take a picture of. (And she’s keeping an eye out for Polar Bears for me, too!)
\nI love these little finds.
\nI did cast on something other than the socks, too. I’ve had some Blue Sky Alpacas Sport weight in the stash since we visited the US, and it’s divine. I finally decided what to make with it, and yesterday I cast on. I’m making the Cropped Cardigan<\/a> by Amy O’Neill Houck, from Blue Sky.
\nI cast on at lunch time yesterday.

\nBy midnight last night when I went to bed, this is where I was up to.

\nTalk about speedy knitting! If I could knit everything this quickly, I wouldn’t even have a stash! Mind you, I did have some difficulty wielding the 7mm needles at first. Quite a bit different to 2mm sock needles, and 3mm lace needles!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
