I had this brilliant idea of knitting Latifa in black and electric yellow without testing the black yarn first to see if the color will run. I didn't swatch, wash and block, of course. (I'll never learn.)
Did y'all ever watch The House of Eliott on A&E?
It's finally available on DVD.
It's that time of year again...

ReplyDeleteGurl you been had my socks out! And you live in a much chiller climate than me! LOL
ReplyDeleteToo bad mine aren't hand knitted :o(
What a great collection of hand-knit socks!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've EVER washed a swatch. So far, I've been VERY lucky. Look at all those toasty socks.
ReplyDeleteah, i'm loving that socks photo. that scarf is going to be gorgeous. i feel ya about not testing for color fastness. sometimes, we get so gung-ho and happy about a project that we just throw caution to the wind! you've got some stunning contrast there and it's in my school colors, LOL!
ReplyDeleteI love the picure of the socks. That's quite a collection.

what's knitting without the mystery of whether it will fit, pill, stretch, fade, felt.... what you say I can now add dye run to the list???
ReplyDeletelove the colors for Latifa and the socks are amazing! I loved HoE, made me want to get a bob.
ReplyDeleteHouse of Eliott is first rate from start to finish. I rented from Netflix and then still ended up buying all the discs anyway. Oh well.
