I pulled out a couple of boxes of variegated sock yarn to list for sale. Found about two skeins that I can actually bring myself to part with. Started knitting again. Just hats so far.

I'm still doing the chevron blanket I started 2 years ago with a ball of free DK yarn I was given. It's not going to be a very big blanket maybe just cover a lap as I only have 1 ball!

I have a million balls/skeins of sock weight yarn and need to see what DK I have. I fancy some kind of shawl/shrug thing or maybe a big grannie square like Ness is doing.

and I may start some sock again.

I also have 95% of a top I started many years ago, I've no idea where in the pattern I am so I will convert it to a vest which if my memory is correct is an easy win!

I really need to sort through my stash

I last did this in about 2018! Gave Ness a load for school
I think most of mine is sock (fingering weight is that the name?) and single skeins but there is only so many single skein shawls you can knit! LOL

Oops. Don't know what happened there!

Start again.

It was much appreciated, Pix.

I'm currently buying the odd ball of chunky wool for a crochet project. A blanket.

Also have a knitting project. A long cardigan which I'm going to finish after Chester.

I'm going to have to have a strict "no starting another jumper till I've finished or frogged at least one of the unfinished ones" rule.

I really need to get back into knitting and crochet. I started a baby blanket in July but am not liking the effect of yarn colour in the pattern much (it's variegated) so stopped. I need to just crack on but maybe need some more wool first. I think I will visit our LYS to see what they've got.
