Finished Items on Ravelry

Finished items on Ravelry

I haven't been posting here for some time because I have been working with my main blog and that the program I'm normally using to post to all my blogs at the same time has not been working properly for some time, but I think that is sorted out now.

So here comes everything I have finished since last time I posted here and you will find everything on my page on Ravelry for a closer look.

Clementine Socks



A new year and hopefully a good one and time to knit new things, and I started with a pair of socks. I really wanted to use the yellow and lilac/purple heel as in the pattern but I couldn't find the perfect purple to match the yellow I had, so I decided to leave them out and knit everything in the main colour that was almost the same as in the pattern.

Most of my socks are all by Kay F Jones because her patterns are so well written that you just can't do wrong and this is perfect for a new knitter who's learning to knit socks. I also like her style and patterns plus that I'm a big fan of their (Dan & Kay Jones) Podcast The Bakery Bears and I'm a Patreon of it as well. If you want to know more about them then check out their Home Page.



A very nice pattern that you only see when you wear it.

Happy New Year!! 2020



I really hope this year will be a better one than the last one because I think my husband and I have had enough of bad things happening in our lives . I will not go into it all in any depths, but it started with my 27 year old niece suddenly died September 21st 2018, and then me losing my memory for a day September 29th 2018 and then the sudden death of my dear father February 1st 2019 and everything that comes with that.

So be kind to each other because you never know when they will be gone forever.


HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Mystery Christmas KAL

The Bakery Bears podcast duo of Dan and Kay Jones have split the Christmas advent calendar this year by doing their own things. Dan is taking the viewers out on trips to interesting places that have Christmas connections and Kay has started a mystery Christmas Knit along. So on every odd dates its Dan and even dates it's Kay, so the KAL (knit-a-long) is a pair of socks with a Christmas/festive theme.



  • Day 1.  Fairy Light Ribbing
  • Day 2. Chimney Stacks
  • Day 3. Tinsel Lace


    Tomorrow is the next section and I can't wait to see what pattern that will be.
