It’s Great to Finish

Branching Out is such an awesome pattern; I’ve probably already said it, but I loved every minute of it. The last thing I need to do for this to be finished is give it a quick wash and a light blocking. Hopefully this record heat doesn’t last for long, because even a light wool scarf is just too much. I finished just in time before summer starts!

I finally took the time to finish my sunset socks today, and I’m pretty pleased with them. If I were to do them again, I’d change a few things. However, they will work mostly comfortably. The toes are a bit tight, and they both feel a bit different due to the different thickness of yarn between the two. The next time I knit handspun socks, the yarn will definitely be much more even. My spinning has improved since then.

    Thanks Kara! I find a bit of charm in the complete asymmetry of the striping between the two.
