Slow progress

Last night I finished the first red bootie. I also used some wool yarn to
give the cable on the leg warmers a try. I did pretty well, but made one
mistake. I think i will keep knitting it around and make a wristband. Tonight
at the knitting circle, i will probably be playing with baby blanket
yarn.

Hmm… it seems like cables are a hard thing to take pictures of…. This
isn’t the yarn i am going to use, it is just some leftovers from the wool that
sarah brought me from New Zealand. It mostly looks gray in real life, but the
blue and purple accents really show up in the picture. For the legwarmers i am
going to use some charcoal colored icelandic lopi that i bought from Yarn Forward.
I wish I had more of the NZ wool, it would work great!
