Simple Variegated Socks

I found some pretty variegated yarn that I wanted to use to make socks.  After browsing for patterns, I couldn't find any that I felt would show off the colors, and also not be lost in them.  So I decided on just a simple stockinette sock.


I loved the pop of green mixed with the purple and blue.  The yarn is Three Irish Girls Adorn Luxe in the Bryn colorway.   It is 85/15 merino and nylon.  I realized I had previously bought the same yarn but in the Fire dance colorway from the same LYS.   I currently have it queued for Sketch it Cowl.   I'm just glad I didn't manage to get the same colorway.

Barely Started Works in Progress

Today's topic is my current works in progress.  I usually have three or four projects at various levels of completeness.  For the first time, in a long while, I have slowed some on my knitting.  I'm getting back into my groove, but after Christmas I needed a bit of a break.

First up is my sweater.  The pattern is Buckwheat by Veera Välimäki.
