Something small and easy

Moving. Gray boxes. More gray boxes. Clothes stuffed in black garbage sacks. Stuff, that I don’t even remember to own. Dust. Cats, scared and shaky in the new environment. Some light and easy needlework to ease the stress.

Knitted these wristwarmers for my husband. You know, it’s the IT accessory of this summer for shorts and tees :-D.

More warmers for summers sake. Remains of Kidsilk are quickly ending up as legwarmers with OnLine Kim. Bought three skeins of it at LYS just to try this lovely merino silk blend. I usually don’t shop yarn without a project plan, but guess that the combination of my favourite fibers was too much to handle at that time. Pattern is very simple, from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. The whole idea is the yarn combination - delicate deep coloured mohair with smooth and lighter coloured wool. Lovely and luxurious texture, indeed. (There was no mention abour silk, but in my opinion some silk could be well included to almost any project).

I’ve cot something new and blue in my needles too, but more about that later.

Jo Sharp pattern book popped in from my mailbox today, and I really need to hold myself from buying some yarn for this. I saw the same fair isle pattern earlier in Flickr, used in man’s sweater. But it was Pujoliivi who really started this itch by showing that wonderful womens version.

But not now. At least three finished projects before any yarn shopping!
