I am so disappointed with these socks 😢 The yarn is #crazyzauberball I bought it in #shrewsbury when we went away. I adore the colours; orange and blue is one of my favourite combinations. I did #eyeofthepartridge heels which turned out beautifully. The yarn feels gorgeous. But then I washed them prior to blocking. The blue bleeds so badly 😱 I currently have 3 pairs of socks that bleed and need to be hand washed. I wear them once in a blue moon, and currently all three pairs have been waiting to be washed for weeks 🙄 On wash day I stick them back in the basket thinking to myself, “I must get around to washing those”, then I forget about them until the next wash day. So these socks are going to their new home tomorrow; to someone who will love and care for them, and who recoils in horror at the thought of putting a pair of precious hand knitted socks in the washing machine 😂 I will mourn the glorious orange and blue, and knit myself another pair 🧡💙🧡 #ukknitters #sockknittersofinstagram #sockknitting #iamarealknitter #sockmaticianstoeups

My socks are finished 😊 I love these colours and think of them as Sufragette Socks 💜💚 The light is funny here today (and my editing skills are very limited) so this doesn’t quite get the colours correctly.

Car knitting 😊 We’re away for the weekend - we fancied having a look round #shrewsbury This pretty sock yarn is by Kathryn @crafternoontreats It’s a Corriedale and Polwarth/nylon blend and feels very nice 🥰 These suffragette colours seem very appropriate for #internationalwomensday #ukknitters #knittersofinstagram #crafternoontreats #sockknitting #sockknittersofinstagram #iamarealknitter

It’s finished! I love it so much 🥰 I’ve put off knitting it for ages because I was very anxious about alternating the skeins (something I’ve only done in a shawl), but it was a piece of cake 😎 I adore the colour and I’m pleased with how the buttons stand out. I loved @louisetilbrookdesigns idea for a decorative rib, but as I’d already done the sleeves and used a plain rib, I decided to stick with that. I didn’t use a smaller needle for the bottom rib, and it’s got the give I wanted. I shall plan the next one better and use a decorative rib 👍 The beautiful yarn is #theenglishgentlemandk by #countessablaze Its a joy to knit with. I might have a few skeins in the Aran weight stashed away... now I’ve lost my fear of alternating strands, there will be another cardigan before the end of the year 😊 The buttons are by @ancaitinbeag I think they are the perfect finishing touch 😍 The ‘pattern’ is #improv by #fringeassociation #improvcardigan #ukknitters #knittersofinstagram #iamarealknitter #ivebeentangoed #ecmakenine2019 #makenine2019
