ECF: Design in Progress
Well, I had high hopes that today’s post would be the debut of my finished FLS. However, there has been a huge crimp in my transportation this week which impeded my getting an appropriate shirt for underneath as well as going to the location I thought would work well for the photoshoot. It has all been just as well as the second highest mountain range in the US has errupted on my face this week. So I’m afraid I’ll have to leave you all waiting with baited breath.
In exchange for teasing you about FLS I share with you a new design that is in progress. Yes - a design that is sharable! The as yet unnamed design is a top-down sock using Miss Babs Yummy (here in fingering, but the pattern will also include the sport). This is the plum monochrome. I’m in love! The color shifts are so subtle it just adds a nice depth to the knit fabric. I’m hoping to have it ready to test knit by next week and released no later than Thanksgiving.
If I have my way this sock will be done and one sport weight sock done by the end of the weekend. It’s a bit of a lofty goal. Especially since we’ll have a house guest all weekend and it is our anniversary on Sunday. But, we’ll see. At least socks are portable :-)
