Well, first of all: let’s make 2010 a great and challenging knitting year with lots of fun! Hope you had as fine a turn of the year as I had with lots of good friends, good food and champagne!

New year’s day started with launching a knitalong for the Dutch Yahoo Sokkenbreilijst. I promised Zjanette/Culinette warm slippers and I wrote out a kind of pattern so that everybody/anybody can knit them. You can find the pattern (Dutch/English) on my pattern page.

And I finished socks for DH. He put them on for a picture and I haven’t seen them since. Yes, that’s the same man who didn’t want knitted socks.

With one foot in the new year I started another sock on a Sock Knitters Anonymous theme for December. She and she donated leftovers Opal 1290 to me, because I once knitted my second socks ever with them and gave them away. I loved the sweet colours of this yarn. The Victorian Swag socks show off these colours perfectly, as you can see.

And though I did not intend to join the SKA mystery sock for January, as soon as I saw the first photo’s coming I was rummaging for yarn and for beads in my stash . Well, it is a bit tricky combination Ewa’s yarn with beads but I’ll see how I succeed. Clue 1 is finished.

Tomorrow works starts. In the renovated building. I start with a class Development Psychology. Yes, that’s reality.
