So here we are. It's Monday again. Wasn't it just Wednesday?
I kept working on my Farmer Sock sweater.
I have two more increases to go before I can scoot across to join both fronts. I am trying to make a more open neckline so I can have a wider ribbed neckline. We shall see how that plan goes.
On Sunday I did not want to think. So I didn't. I was so lazy I did not even dig in the WIPs bin for an ongoing project. I grabbed the sock yarn bag and started a new sock.
First yarn at the top was some Kroy. Too bad Kroy is now shipped from the US. It has been one of my favourite sock yarn and I don't buy from US sources these days. I haven't since 2016. I try to stick to European makers instead.
I didn't get huge amounts of work done, but a toe is a toe is a toe. Good enough for me. I kind of like the way this colourway is working up. It is so much nicer looking than in the skein. The only part I don't really like is the grey. It just feels wrong with the richness of the browns and oranges. Too bad it isn't a deep purple. Still, when it's all done up it might be just right. We shall wait and see.
And that was my weekend. I need to go back to one day a week for socks and working on a different sweater on the weekends. It will keep my mind fresh and strong and vibrant. I am going to try that this week.
