Stitching for Sanity

I've borrowed the title from a favourite knitting / spinning blog but it's very apt.

These last few weeks have been incredibly busy, too busy to sit down and take a break, but this beautiful yarn and growing project have been calling to me and insisting that I take half and hour here and there (usually very late at night!) to knit a few rows. Without that I'm not sure I would have coped.

I love the way this is turning out. The bought trekking sock yarn is a real joy to use, I love the colours in it and the way it's striping.

For the record, that's five pattern repeats, I'm at the instep and about to turn the heel.
