I had forgotten


I had forgotten how much I like the challenge of working a complicated pattern with charts. I have been making lots of stocking stitch and garter stitch and straight lines and simple tubes. I need to flex my knitting muscles and stretch. I'm very grateful for the Knit Sock Love knit a long for reminding me to branch out.
I feel like this pattern has helped me to find my delight in knitting again. What a lovely way to start a year.

    I actually couldn't believe the charts when I saw them - it's been a while. Having said that, I'm so happy I cast on last night - I'd forgotten how much I missed knitting socks.

    I have a charted pattern on the needles and while I like it, I have to have something simple to turn to when the charts drive me batty (which happens more than I'd like to admit!)
