The past month has been really busy. While I have been knitting, I have not been taking pictures. Work gets in the way of my knitting life.
My friend, Rob, cannot wear any wool. He loves knitted things though so I work hard to find nice acrylic yarn to make him things. He needed, I decided, mukluks. Mary Maxim to the rescue!
I bought Titan...a nice bulky with NO wool. I knit the mukluks. Did not pay attention to the row gauge. OH NO. OH NO. OH NO. There were fewer rows per inch than Lamb's Pride Bulky thus looonger feet. SWEAR WORDS.
When I told Rob the sad story and how I would make him something else, he replied....LONGER FEET ARE GREAT! I can wear more pairs of socks in the slippers. Problem solved. This time.
On the needles now...several pairs of socks, one pair of mittens. In the planning stages...the dreaded Packer baby sweater.
