Photo Friday - New Pattern Release!!
My latest sock pattern, Moriarty is being released today. It is 20% off in my Ravelry store until Midnight EST, Thursday April, 7th, 2016. You can download it here.
The colourway of the yarn used in the sample, In a world of locked rooms, the man with the
key is king is a quote by Moriarty, the clever nemesis of Sherlock
Holmes. This pattern is inspired by
Moriarty. The design features a dropped stitch pattern down the front of the
leg and top of the foot and simple ribbing down the back of the leg and top
half of the short row heel.
This stitch pattern combined with the ribbing makes
a very stretchy sock. You may find that
you need to make a smaller circumference size than usual; let your gauge swatch
be your guide.
The
pattern is needle-neutral, so you can knit it with your needle of choice in
your preferred style. Written instructions
are provided, and the stitch pattern is easily reversible for knitters who
prefer to knit socks toe-up.
Instructions are included for narrow, medium, wide and extra wide
widths. Foot length is customizable.
Happy Knitting!

This is possibly the best knitting video ever made where Mr. Rogers talks about his Mother and the sweaters she knit for him. My favourite part is when he says, "It's one of the ways she says 'I love you'...she uses needles and yarn and her own hands."

This is Neville. He enjoys rooting through the stash, running away with partial balls of yarn and laying with me while I knit. He is the only other yarn-lover in my family.
Have a great weekend.

It was finally cold enough this week to wear some hand knits!
This is one of my favourite pairs of socks. The yarn is KnitPicks Felici in "Rainbow". My favourite thing about winter is that I get to wear all my handknit goodies.
I hope you have lots of knitting in your life this weekend.
