Second Year of Projects Week 28

I've just got back to Nottingham, and let the cat out for the first time in 3 weeks. He was delighted to be out, but was back home in the warm in half an hour, so I feel very relieved that he doesn't hate us! I've got all my unpacking done, so I think it's time to update you on my Year of Projects.

So my actual update this week is a bit of deja vu! I frogged the much too big socks from last week, and started the smaller size. I'm now nearly at the point which I was at after all my Christmas knitting. They're coming out at a much better size now, and I think they'll fit.

So I'm not doing too badly, I am a little bit behind where I would like to be, but I will have more knitting time this term since I'm not commuting as far, so I think I'm on track!

  3. It's lovely to see the recap of all your projects. With everything else you've got going on, you've accomplished a ton. I'm so pleased to hear that you've knit back to where you were on the socks and that they fit now. They're going to be so pretty!

  7. You are impressive! All that done and we are only 1/2 done with the year. :) Sorry you have spent so much time frogging but it seems you will be much happier with socks which fit.

  9. I love your Ghostie socks! My OH has asked me to knit him 'Pirate socks' with skulls and crossbones on. Is it daunting or very time consuming to use intarsia on socks?
