First of all, these came off my knitting needles over the weekend...
Pattern is my generic one and the yarn was Paton's Kroy Socks FX in the geranium colourway. Already added to the Christmas box.
And...I've made a good start at the current landscape as you can see from this...
- There are a number of ideas HERE for using lavender from your garden. And have a peek at THIS (sorry, can't find the original creator, but I liked the idea anyway)
- I haven't shared an 'awwwww' lately, so how about THIS one?
- Have a peek through the gallery pages HERE.
- And the creations of THIS amazing artist too!
Today's quote...'There's really not a difficult thing unless you decide it's a difficult thing. Otherwise, it's just the next thing you're figuring out"
I do like paper artworks. It's an amazing material. Your latest artwork is coming along fast, too.
ReplyDeleteThose paper pieces are astoundingly detailed - can't imagine the patience it must take!
DeleteThis piece is going to be so amazing!! It is already looking super;)))
ReplyDeleteLove the lavender crafts link..my favorite scent...;))) hugs, Julierose
I'm hopeful that I can pull this one off!
DeleteI like lavender but it doesn't like me, sadly.
Sherry of createology: Such a pretty color way on the latest socks you have hand knit. This beginning of your newest landscape is amazing! It has already drawn me into the room to see more. So many great links. I have never embraced anything difficult…yet as I find my aging rushing along I do now embrace a few difficult “challenges” now. Happy Summer Week Dear.
ReplyDeleteHopefully the recipient of the socks will like them. I think I subscribe to the 'difficult thing being figured out' a lot when it comes to my landscapes!
DeleteReally good progress on the new piece!
ReplyDeleteThanks! This one is a definite learning curve.
DeleteOh wow! That is a great start. Love the socks too. Just made some lavender wands last night. I have to get out there and pick some more tonight for more. Smells lovely in here right now.
ReplyDeleteI really wish I could have lavender in the house because it does smell so pretty.
DeleteA pair of socks AND all those pieces and details in your picture! You work fast. Those socks are amazing. I'm still trying to make a simple round rib knit hat without so many messy bloopers.
ReplyDeleteKnitting happens in front of the tv in the evenings - the landscapes happen during the daytime. I pretty much always have a pair of socks on the needles to pick up when I have a few minutes.
DeleteOh my - and what a start you've made! I love all that you've done so far - this is going to be fabulous!
DeleteI definitely challenged myself with this one and so far so good!
