Woolgathering

The Hedera socks are proving to be slow work I suppose I should get them out more frequently.

I turned the heel on the first one tonight, but had stitches left over, so I had to tink it. It was going too slowly and the bath was running… so I pulled it off the needles and ripped it out. Then I tried to pick up the stitches. Oh, my… this yarn is really splitty…

I finally got it turned but how can I put it in the show? What a mess. My eyes just aren’t up to the unpicking routine these days.

The socks are intended for the 100 grammes class but they aren’t going to take 100 grammes of yarn. I am going to have to knit up a quick gift pouch to put them in, I think. That’s if I ever get to make any progress on them. *sigh*

Anybody got any good ideas for making up the 100 grammes usage otherwise?

Don’t forget to look in on Fenny’s Blogathon effort!
