The new year of Sockdown has begun, and I’ve cast on Wendy Johnson’s Rivergrass socks in Sundara sock in the Pine over Gold colorway. This was the closest I’m willing to come to the other theme of the month, which is knitting with yellow yarn. I’m not a fan of yellow, and don’t look particularly good in it, so the designer part of the challenge was a no brainer this month.
I’ve reached the halfway point of my Ashterton scarf, so will probably let that sit for a little while. I need to have that done by December, so I still have plenty of time to finish it. Instead, I’d rather concentrate on my February Lady sweater. I’ve finished the body, and have started on sleeve #1. Since it’s very rapidly approaching sweater season, I’d like to finish that sooner rather than later.
