With Dave’s socks off the needles, I needed to get another pair on. Ever since I finished Paisley’s cardigan, I’ve wanted to use the leftover mauve Wollmeise for a pair of socks for myself. Since it was only used for the pinstripes, there was lots left.
So I started knitting…

I know, I know – it’s already almost a pair!!! And while it may seem crazy fast (even for me…) they aren’t ankle socks, but they aren’t terribly long in the leg either (about 4.5 inches long). I have small feet. And on Saturday, spent almost 8 hours in a vehicle. It’s not often I get to be the passenger anymore, so when Dad said he was driving I made sure to pack my knitting!
I’m making Woodland Walk again. I absolutely love this pattern, and the previous two pairs I made were given away. This pair is going to be mine all mine!
Expect to see an FO post in a day or so.
Car knitting is the best for getting things done in a hurry!

Oh I love those Val! Lavender is my favorite color and that pattern is perfect for the yarn. I’m trying to figure out what to take for the plane tomorrow and the drive home. I think it will be mittens. Small and easy to pack. I should be able to make at least 4-5 pair so I’ll be ahead and can make something else when I get home. 🙂
Blessings,
Betsy

So, do you have the book with the pattern, or is it one of yours? BTW, it wouldn’t connect with your link?
