Okay… so I said I had to get back to the poncho, and I have… but I also needed a travel project on the needles.
When I visit Sam and family in the middle of the month, her husband remarked that the socks I had made him many, many moons ago (way back in 2016), had finally developed a hole.
I guess it’s time for a new pair.
Since spring is still ages away (as you can see by the hens and chicks in my poor little bird cage), I went with something bright and cheery to keep me excited. It’s a skein of Barn Cat in in “Laguna” – a wild swirl of aqua and green with pops of bright Mediterranean blue.
Nothing fancy in pattern – just a simple 3-1 rib. His birthday is at the end of March, so I’m hoping I can finish them before then. But…. poncho MUST come first! I want that bad boy off the needles by the end of February at the latest!

Hmmmm….that yarn looks very familiar. I think you sent me a skein of it. In fact, I just looked. You did! It made some gorgeous socks.

Great sock color! The color will do you good–in between rows on the poncho, of course!

That yarn is so yummy looking! It will be a good occasional break from the poncho. I would be wearing that poncho on some of our unseasonably warm afternoons.

You know we are as many weeks away as you or more for buds! I love your sock color way. Finish that poncho so you can wrap yourself in it as the winter carries on and on and on
Maybe a ROYAL will copy you
