Dear Peter Davison cricket jumper,
It has been fun, we have had great times together. Watching the West Wing together. When I took you to my yoga retreat at Gaia. Good times. But our time together has become a bit stale. I need to knit other things, I think we should take a break.
Yours
Forever Knit.
Now I have got that out of the way. I have been working on my first toe-up, which was great fun. I used Charlene Schurch’s More Sensational Knitted Socks as my guide but knitted plain. I was getting very muddled about the structure, how the heel flap was knitted in the same order as a top down sock. However, trying it on, I think that structure fits my foot better. I am converted to toe-up. Or now I am just multi-socksual.
I have also picked up Quant again and that is coming along beautifully. I think it will make a nice little birthday gift for sis. Once I got the hang of this entrelac malarky, it is not hard that really!

Let me know how your cast off goes at the cuff – mine was too tight!

Yes mine was a little tight too. Not as tight as my sockette stockings for under work shoes. Ouch those cut into my legs.
Is there a stretchier/looser cast off we should be using?
