The cold weather is upon us so it is nice to sit by a fire
and knit. This cover reminds me of me as I have model ships about the
house. I have been also mostly knitting socks on four needles lately as I had
to give my aching hands a rest from the ultra-thin, sometimes, almost invisible
knitting needles of my historic projects. Hence the limited amount of reproduction
knitting on this blog in the past few months. There are still a substantial
number of reproduction wips though, including a few that need to be ripped out
and started again for various reasons. I will be discussing a few of them here.
Until then, however, back to those socks which are going right into use these
days – a good incentive to prevent Second Sock Syndrome.
