Pink Ribbon SockTell you, moving is a hell of a job, so this will be in one language only. That’s efficiency. The living room has a wall of boxes now and most of my knitting things has disappeared in boxes. When will we meet again…? :-). In the meantime, I finished the Pink Ribbon Socks for Gerda, one of my (former) team members. Socks to spend an evening on the couch with, with a book and a glass of wine. I so hope she will be a survivor. We’ll say goodbye this Thursday, Gerda has worked long enough.

JacobeanOne pair finished, time to start the other. I subscribed to the Sock Knitters Pentathlon – during this Olympic year we will knit 5 pair of socks in different techniques. This little Gansey sock is the first. I knit it with Marion’s Sockyarn, a gift from Guinifer. On needles US 1 /2.25 mm they will be far too small for me are an amazingly perfect fit, but and it is a beautiful pattern that needs some concentration. Not difficult, no, but you just have to knit with attention.Simply Cables by Sockamania

I also wanted to have a kind of no brainer. Anni’s March Sock was perfect. Simply Cables. And that’s it. You can knit it waiting for the telephone man, the curtain man, the was machine man. Sitting on the floor of New House, feeling the sun in my back, knitting the time away. Yarn is Trekking Ombre in colour number 100. It’s a bit autumny, but that is because I have these cold feet all the time nowadays and these colours are warm. The title is an intended pun to the new program of the Dutch National Ballet: On the Move.  I am going to enjoy it this Tuesday! Life has some tricks and I have an awfully cold, with fever and coughing, etc. So that was no ballet and yes bed.Well, if you don’t mind. I go back to my boxes. This will be my last post before the big day. We’ll move on Good Friday, first day of Spring. Double luck. See you then!
