BLUE TOE SPINNER

Now that the holiday is over, I can show you the little things I made. These are the bookmarks I made for people at work and for some of my nieces and nephews. They are the Harry Potter Scarf bookmarks from "Charmed Knits". They are made from DMC #5 Floss on #1 circular needles. The multi-colored ones in the center I just threw together to use up some of the leftover floss. They were so fun to make. I'm still working on the Magic Loops socks and still trying to work on a hat for my son and a lacy top for my daughter-in-law. I was able to spend some time with family this year. It was a very special time for Mumsy and me. May the Lord bless you all this season and in the new year to come!

This is my first handspun sock yarn. It is made from Louet Northern Lights roving. Two strands lollipop and one strand circus. I have started knitting the socks, using the Magic Loop method. Also a first. I can't believe how difficult it is to find a pattern to do this. I elected to do cuff down. But, I wasn't able to find a pattern for this. So, I guess I will wing it. I bought a book that shows how to knit two socks on two circular needles. This introduced too many factors into the mix, (which cable goes to which needle end..., what sock am I on...?) I am still determined to see the project to the finish, hopefully before my new Guild meeting in January. Oh, I also have to thrum something by then, too.
