2022 to 2026

This is actually A Few Years’ Round Up.

Honestly the last few years are a bit of a blur but I try to take a lot of photographs so I can look back and remember that stuff actually happened. I found some pictures of notable knitting projects:

I knit a lot of socks! Some are for me, some for The Beef, some for my parents. I make them for everyone for Xmas and their birthday.
 

It looks like the original image of my Little Cotton Rabbit has broken but I made him in 2020, I think. I made a load of new little clothes for him recently though. I’ve made 3 frogs so far but this is the only photo I got before I gifted them all away. I plan to make more. Eventually. There have been some patterns for whimsical little clothes released since I made mine, and I simply must make a pumpkin costume, I must.

That's a fabulous array of socks!

I love the rabbit and the frog, they're both adorably cute, and the gloves look cosy. Like you, my hands are cold most of the time. Fingerless gloves are ideal for when I'm on the computer. Mine are very basic though, not prettily patterned like yours.

Thanks! I highly recommend fancy gloves, they make me happy every time I put them on, even though it’s so annoying.

Your socks are gorgeous! I especially like the rainbow ones. Do you tend to stick to the same pattern?

Thanks!

Most of them are made to a custom pattern for each recipient’s foot which I calculated using Kate Atherley’s Custom Socks book. Absolutely fantastic resource! They’re perfect every time which I am chuffed about every time they put them on for Xmas day.

I’m planning to use it as a base this year. We’ll see!
