Holidays!

Back from the annual beach holiday at Byron Bay. It was idyllic, as usual. Mr Wriggly and I spent a lot of time getting sand in our pants. He also spent quite a bit of time squidging sand between his fingers and toes, and when I took my eye off him, eating it too.


I finally finished Nikki's Selbu, and an rather chuffed at the way it turned out. Heres the mandatory inside out shot:


And here it is being modelled by the birthday girl herself!

Casting on fever

Taking my cue from Knit Devil's Feel Like a Floozy KAL for January, I have the following projects on my needles:

The (possibly previously) mentioned Paul Attwell Socks:


A Selbu for Nikki:


Another pair of Rock and Weave Socks in Hot Flash (but I so want to call the colourway Hot Flush) for Liza:


Blackrose Socks in the much cast on and frogged Midnight Meadows Sundara sock yarn:


In in a fit of complete indulgence, I am awaiting the arrival of some red Classic Elite yarn to cast on my big project for the year - Bijou. It features lots of terrifying things, like short row bust darts. But I've decided as part of my New Year's Resolutions that I will read the pattern before I cast on so I dont repeat the chain of events that lead me to make my son into a hunch back.
