comfort knitting

i haven't knit anything that requires referring to a pattern for several months now. apparently what the body wants is to repeat ribbing (or flat brioche) ad infinitum.

um, okay.

the unfortunate side effect is that i have two unfinished projects for C that are quietly guilting me - a pair of cabled mitts to replace the ones he's worn out (and they were a workhorse wool, they just got daily hard use for several years) and the second of a pair of socks with a 12-row repeat pattern. neither of them are hard. in fact, i have the sock pattern memorized and the cables are pretty easy to read. however, that seems to be a step too far for me right now.

currently cranking out socks with the strong heel (which is basically the Fleegle heel upside-down). i started these at Norwescon.


i like the fit, they're fast...so of course for the current pair i'm trying a different placement for the increases. pics if i like the results.
