dreamnt of socks, got balls of yarn
Today I made two balls of yarn. I had planned on knitting socks for my grandmother. How naive of me. I found some beautiful merino wool and a free pattern online, things were looking good. But this is as far as I got. I know it doesn’t seem like much, but it took me an 40 min. because I don’t own a jig that does it for you. It was actually a rather meditative process, though at times a bit frustrating.

Lovely colours! What pattern did you have in mind?
thanks! it is Koigu (KPM) yarn. Just discovered it yesterday and very excited. I was thinking about trying this mosaic pattern.

but according to the instructions it seems that prior experience may be useful, sooo this project might take me a while.
