more FOs, more new projects, more waiting

Still knitting, still waiting. Just same old, same old... So I thought I share some of my knitting
First off is the FOs of the past week

Malabrigo wrist warmers     Travellers sock by Nancy Bush
Fetching from Knitty in Malabrigo               Travellers socks by Nancy Bush from VK

I feel really good about the socks since it is my first pair of "thin" socks. I have already cast on a new pair and I am planning to cast on for a third pair, so the sock-bug has bit me hard... but I will have warm feet at least. The wrist warmers are the second pair I make and they are, as I think I said befor, super soft and wonderful. Very good for Swedish winter.  

Then on to the new projects and plans that I have.

Jitterbug plain sock

This is a plain stockinet stich sock knit up in the Collinet Jitterbug that I got the other week. This is soft yarn. It knits up so nice and thees socks are going to be warm and cosy. I love them. Since this picture was taken (earlier today) I have managed to turn the heal and I am now half way down the foot. It is VERY nice to work with is all I can say...

next sock, I think

Here we have my plans for another sock. This is Conway from Nancy Bushs book knitting on the road. I have cast on but not started the actuall knitting yet but as I said, sock knitting has me in it's grip!

waiting to be cast on

Also in the pipeline is a sweater for the new baby. That is to say f I can come to terms with her not beeing out yet. Maybe if she knows I am knitting for her she will hurry up and come out sooner. I will have to try that tomorrw and be sure to tell her what I am doing. The yarn is the Eko cotton from Huskroken, same specs as for the dress butt different color (as you can see).

lots of knitting time...

Finally here is a picture of my prgres on the Puck sweater. The back (or the front...) Is done and I have gotten quite some knitting done on the front (or the back) as well. I am acctually sone going to start the decreases for the arm hole and I think I am going to to it exactly the same as I did on the other one. Even though I no I miss calculated and the top of the sweater is a bit wider than what is called for in the pattern.

Other than knitting there has been some looking at sports here in the house thees past few weeks. The World championship in alpine skiing is going really well for Sweden so it has been a lot of fun watching all the races. This has influensed little A  a lot to say the least and last weekend he acctually got his own first pair of skis. He LOVES them. I think he would sleep with them if he could. So now he is in training and with this picture I bid you good night and happy knitting!

Hur länge som helst verkar det som... men de säger ju att alla ungar kommer ut förr eller senare så jag har förhoppningar om att ha en bebis snart ;o)
