First, I knit another pair of socks..this time its a pair for my son Leo. Just a basic pattern, a soft acrylic yarn (kids are tough on clothes so no fancy wool for them right now)...nothing special. I have the concept down fairly well now. I think the next pair will be something more elaborate on the cuff. Then perhaps Ill work down to a design on the foot itself.
Next, I finished a project I had actually started a little while ago for a friend who has honey bees. I saw it, immediately thought of her and started it. Its DMC cotton thread on linen, though I don't recall the count.
Lastly, a friend asked me to make a medallion so I embroidered this for her. It is one strand of twisted silk done on linen, over two. I had to actually purchase a pair of reading glasses to be able to see the tiny weave to embroider it. Im quite pleased with how it came out. I placed a quarter in the picture to show size.
I have a few more projects on my list I am working on. More as I finish them.
Cheers!!
