This week was a failure in the goals department. I don’t think I worked even a row on my Featherweight Cardi. I’m training right now for my new temporary position and it’s mentally exhausting me, but I’ll try to do better this week.

Temperature Scarf - May Progress

May started with a bit of a heat wave and then cooled off a bit to be mostly between 15 and 20 degrees.

Since my scarf has gotten longer I haven’t been documenting the entire length each month. I decided to take a pic of the entire length too this month. I love how the colours look together.

Kris’s Socks

I finished Kris’s Socks. Mathew’s sister asked me for socks about a year and a half ago. She was patient and in December I decided it was time to start her a pair. I once again, used Susan A. Gordon’s Self Striping Toe Up Socks pattern and one of my favourite sock yarns, Garnstudio DROPS Fabel in the Fun Lilac colourway. I left the leg stitches live while I did the heels and then had Kris try them on before I bound them off. These socks have been waited patiently to be tried on since the end of March, and last weekend they had their chance. Kris decided that the length was perfect and that they were her new favourite socks.
