Everything Was New Once...

…However, these projects are all old, old, old! I'm feeling a burning desire to get something off the needles though before I cast-on anything else…and I did promise you would see the baby blanket every week until I completed it!

EKP Baby Blanket
Get ready for the shocker…5 whole stripes have been added since you last saw this! I just completed stripe #23. The current plan is to increase till stripe 30 and than start decreasing…however, I might add a couple extra stripes before I decrease. I'm just playing it by ear right now.

Rainbow Latte Stripes
Finished the gusset decreases for the second sock (they had been started last week) and have knitted on the body of the foot for both socks. Not too many more rounds before toe time; I'm so excited!!!

Vanilla Latte Stripes
Last but certainly not least are my Vanilla Latte Stripes; I love this pattern, I love this yarn and I totally love this lone, singular sock…which will probably stay a lone, singular sock once I finish it till I complete some Christmas presents. A little mandated SSS never hurt anyone too badly…I got some nice body of the foot work done this week; like the Rainbow Latte Stripes, not too much longer till toe decreases!

Sorry for nothing new and exciting, but I gotta do some clearing up before I can start anything new. I'd really love to have my WIP list down to 5/6 before I add to it again.

Linking up with Tami and Ginny today and every Wednesday. :)

  3. Sometimes ya just gotta clean up the WIPs. Yours look great. I love Vanilla Latte . . . it is such a great pattern and really seems to work with almost any colorway.

    1. Definitely in a clean-up mood! Hoping it lasts for a bit of time :) I adore Vanilla Latte; its super well written and produces a great sock! And I really do find it works with most colorways!
