    2025-10 & 11 Socks for E & J

    I work with a couple of really great women, who are definitely knitworthy. We also have some pretty great clients, one of whom offered me some sock yarn this tax season because she had been given quite a bit from someone else and couldn’t possibly use it all. Our office colours are turquoise and silver, so of course I asked her for turquoise options if she had any, and she came through! I knit a pair for both Erika and Jeanette after tax season, I still have some yarn left, so into the stash it goes, to be pulled out another day. Maybe I’ll get a pair of sock out of it?

    Cheers to a new project!

    2025-9 Teddy Bear Blankie

    After finishing the baby blankets in my previous post, I had a bunch of 2 round granny squares left over. My niece asked if I could make her teddy bears a blankie with it, and she picked yellow as the joining colour. It was a quick, fun project, that I forgot to measure, but it’s just right for teddies Jack Jack and Nala 🥰
