Hey Everyone!
First of all, yesterday afternoon I finished up the first sock of the pair that I am making out of the Babel yarn I had ordered from Forbidden Fiber Company, in the colorway: Victoria’s Memory.
Yesterday I also washed up the leather Waistcoat socks I had finished last week since yesterday was so hot. I always love how socks feel once they are washed, and all the excess dyes and waxes and such that the yarn is processed with to knit up easier, are washed out. Nine times out of ten they are noticeably softer.
Now that September is almost here, school is starting around where I live, and the weather will hopefully continue cooling off after today, I am starting to plan my autumn and winter projects.
I will for sure be order more sock Yarns from Forbidden Fiber Company, since it is become my favorite small yarn shop. I also intend to order from We Are Knitters, and make a few winter hats from their yarn.
Yesterday, I also finally started watching the second season of Home Fires, which is a British TV show set during the early part of the Second World War (starting in 1939 and ending roughly a year later in 1940), before the US is forced to enter the war.
I know I have kind of let this blog slide over the past year or two, and now I am really wanting to get back in to it, and create more content, on a more consistent basis, for my readers.
I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas. Would you want to see more yarn reviews? More yarn store reviews? A bit more lifestyle of a knitter? What are some of the types of posts you enjoy reading?
