That was quick-ish

First thanks for the comments on the socks.  I just started doing sock knitting last year and I am really enjoying it.  Still waiting for sock two to come out for the Madness.

Which means... I had some time to stitch.  I must still be in MUST CRAFT mode because this one seemed to go quickly.

Tempting Teas.  

Before.


Really kinda sad looking there.  

After.


This project seems to be much more colourful than the cover photo shows.  I quite like it.

Next up will be Forgiveness.  Though I am really hoping the next sock comes out super soon.

Beatrix Socks!

Well, not really.  Just my update on Beatrix Potter and my fist socks for Sock Madness 10.


First up.  Beatrix!!!

Before.


When I pulled her out this time I started wondering if my fabric was long enough.  Always that panic.  I decided to work down the left side.

After.


Yes,  I do have enough fabric.  It does show how poorly I had measured and centered this one though.  Yikes!



Next up.  Socks!   I even finished these in time to go onto round two.


Now while I wait for round two I will work on Tempting Teas.  Exciting to be working on something new-ish!

Forgiveness

First, thanks for the comments on Suzannah.  It is nice to have the first girl finished.

Worked on Forgiveness.  Also, it is now Sock Madness time to my stitching is taking a minor backseat to my knitting.

Before.


After.



Next up, when not knitting, Beatrix Potter Quaker
