Forgot one ... & finished one

The River Rapids Socks
Specs' ...
- 2-at-once Magic Loop method
- 2.0mm Knitpicks Classic Circulars
- Gauge: 10 sts
- one repeat added for a total of 9 rpts over 72 sts
- heel changed to a no-wrap eye of partridge short row heel, (SRH),
over 36 sts + 2 sts that were inc on the row just before starting the heel and subsequently decreased after the heel was done
NB: next time I must remember to 1. start the eye of partridge st ~1/2" before the start of the SRH so the sock will hug the back/top of the heel and 2. do the 2-st dec later for a roomier instep.)

At it again ...

-mostly new, some revamped

Currently OTN

I've adapted Dorothy Siemens' triangular Peacock Feathers Shawl pattern into a Faroese style with a back panel and shoulder shaping found in Myrna Stahman's Shawls and Scarves.
The yarn is Jagger Spun Superlamb, (merino wool,) and the needles are 3mm Addi lace circulars.
Some of the smaller beaded stitch markers catch on the yarn overs so I made new stitch markers with larger beads.

NB: if I gently pull down the fabric below a smaller stitch marker that has gone through to the wrong side then it usually pops back to the right side.

BLING .. okay, time to STOP

- glass beads, lustre glass, and polished garnet chips, heavier than the shell and coin stitch markers.









I like the two sides of 'mother of pearl', you choose whichever side shows up best against the yarn you're working with, and I like tiger tail for it's flexibility.
