The wedding shawl knitting is ongoing, of course, but I’ve just cast on a pair of socks for my first daughter, who lives in Texas. She’s a pretty Irish girl, and so I wasn’t that surprised when the two yarns she chose contained different shades of green. This first pair I’m making for her is a combination of blues and greens – jewel tones, more or less, very beautiful:
"Holes in my Socks" in Lorna's Lace Shepherd Sock, Beverly colorway
the colors are spiraling!
I finished the new couch cushions, very squishy and beautiful. They look nice on the brown leather couch, and complement the oriental rug, too. But I was sitting at my sewing table with the window open – we can’t control the heat in our apartment except by opening the windows – and suddenly there was a loud noise and a snowball came through the opening. Scared the living daylights out of me!
So many beautiful socks. The Hedera socks turned out beautifully, but I must admit, as an Irish girl myself, that those blues and greens really catch my eye. Which LL colorway is it?
It’s called Beverly – there is more green in the skein that it seems in the photo – and the greens vary from yellow-green to olive, very beautiful! You Irish girls and your greens.
I went to Ireland last summer with my oldest daughter, and we couldn’t ever get enough of the green, it was so gorgeous. I love that place.
Love them! The colors are so beautiful, Can’t wait to wear them and give my feet a bit of luxury! Love you!
