I'll see Nicola again @thegreatbritishfibrefestival on 7/8th June
Tamsin won't be there cos she's at the @woolmonty all the way up-country in Rotherham that weekend, so here or there, you'll be in for a treat

Also test driving teeny stitch markers I made at the weekend.
Fabulous to have sun streaming into our kitchen whilst the lines are filled with washing!

Finished!
I am ridiculously proud of these socks
I don't think I made any mistakes on the second one & I even remembered to make notes 🤣
I can't recommend the #AnkleBiter by @ladybuglaboratory enough
I do need to increase the needle size for the ribbing..1/2

Progress on the #AnkleBiter sock by @ladybuglaboratory
Thanks to her fab tutorials I have the hang of twin stitches and because of her spreadsheet the first sock fitted MrGand his hobbit feet perfectly.

Another day off
Another classic movie I'd not seen (Dalek Invasion 2150) & some progress with MrGs sock
Using handdyed 4 ply gifted by a customer - feels like nonsuperwash wool; I'm beginning the gusset.

learned I don't need to make the sock a larger size, but use bigger needle for ribbing & larger again for bind off
Yesterday I made shinies for orders completed sock 1 today it's been more marmalade & sock2

Second sock still too tight to get over my heel, so I've ripped back the first and am redoing the ribbing a full needles size larger
Any tips welcome!
In other news, spent the morning updating my website with the spinner rings I'd completed ...

Wednesdays are a day we're trying to treat as 'day off' - no #hamlinlaneallotments for him; no shinies for me
Instead we are sposed to be spending it together
This is a jigsaw given by our neighbours for Xmas
MrG thinks he's done it 🤣

Isn't that a beautiful gusset 😂😂😂
Not something I'd have expected to say before this year!

These are all commissioned pieces that will now need to go ...

Sundays are usually bench days, but today I converted 1/2 these fabulous #Sevilles into 12 jars of marmalade (i add 150ml Tullibardine single malt, cinnamon sticks and star anise to channel my nana)....

Mostly spent at the bench filing + polishing I'm now covered in compound so after my shower I'll be back on the second sock - that's what I accomplished yesterday, now it's short rows with twin stitches

2nd sock
1st cuff's a bit too snug, so I've adjusted my measurements + am having a 2nd go (I'll frog & redo the first once I've perfected the maths 😉)
Yarn is still @kosy_kitchen_fibre merino/yak/nylon sock and proper lush
