I’m tired of taking photos of the Hermione socks so I’m not showing them again until they’re finished. Hopefully that will just be next week, but we’ll see.
In the meantime, have a photo of my newest WIP!
These are hopefully going to be some Diagon Ally (rav link) socks for the boyfriend, this being the second skein of yarn he bought in Dunoon specifically for socks.
The twisted ribbing is new to me so that was exciting, and I might possibly maybe have a go at using the chart when it comes to the actual diagonal part. It would be good for my brain, I’m sure.
Now I’m off for a walk because there are only 10 days left of my 1 million step challenge!

I love the look of twisted rib! I was informed by my fitbit last week that I walked the length of the Great Wall of China. No wonder I’m so darn tired all the time.

I’ll be honest, I can’t really see much difference to normal ribbing.But I quite like knitting through the back loop so I might keep using it anyway. Apparently I walked 500 miles for the challenge!

Twisted rib is such a pain to knit, but sooo pretty!

I quite like it! Or maybe it was just the fact that it wasn’t 1×1 rib.

I do seem to have an accidental theme forming! Maybe this is where the random urge to re-read the books came from.

I love that you are exploring new patterns and new stitches – life gets tedious otherwise doesn’t it?

Exactly. Well-known can be comforting, but sometimes I just need to try something new.

Looking good. Love the yarn choice. Just checked out the pattern and they look awesome.

The boyfriend chose his own yarn so I can’t take the credit. I just hope turn out looking half as good as the pattern!

Ooh those are going to be awesome! I’ve wanted to make that pattern for ages so I’ll be interested to see how you get along with it.

I was put off because I thought it was only charted, but then it turns out to have written instructions too so I had to go for it!
