Not something i usually do, I tried a couple of free patterns for snowmen but they didn’t look great ok but not special. Then I saw this one and thought no i am not paying that, well about ten minutes later i bought it and it is the most comprehensive pattern for something simple I have ever seen.

I started knitting last night and it starts with a pin hole cast on which I have never used before, I am seriously impressed, probably worth buying the pattern for.

After Christmas my cat gets them as toys.

It’s good to see people still knitting.  Don’t worry @b15erk life has a nasty way of getting in the way.  I

I have had to unpick the second of my mittens as I forgot to do the in rear or after the rib  :thinking:  So my socks are a bit more delayed.

I decide it was too Diane is back in the said box.   She says with dunce’s cap on

I am so sorry @Diane  it is supposed to read,’ I decided it was too difficult and it’s back in the box, she says with dunces cap on.” 

 Not too sure where my spell checker or whatever picked up your name and decided to play with it, serves me right for not reading before posting

 I must say it gave me a good laugh when I saw this though which I needed this afternoon.

Looking good

Absolutely lovely looking forward to seeing it.

@Acorn well done bit of retail therapy too, look forward to seeing it

They look like an interesting heel construction.  I am at the moment knitting some fingerless gloves and some socks , I do often have two projects on the go as sometimes I need something a bit mindless.

Is anyone else still knitting socks?  If so let us know what.

@Renegade Sewist i was not sure if I had bought it in the USA if so it was about 25 years ago, I have been there since but didn’t get to hobby shop if you know what I mean. 

Otherwise it was probably at The knitting and Stitching show in London as I have been there every year except this year for more years than I care to remember.
