One UFO down - hopefully

November 29, 2015 Recycle Knits

My grey angora gloves are finished. They have turned out too big after the first wash, but I'm certainly not opening them up again. I will insert a few rounds in the fingers, give them to my son and make another pair. Yesterday I was looking for some wool for the next pair when a UFO fell into my hands: Bavarian style socks. They are really only Bavarian style, not proper traditional Bavarian socks because I knitted them from the toe up - the real thing is top down - and therefore the patterns are also in the 'wrong' place, so to say, and I'm not Bavarian. I absolutely love twisted stitch cables. I have at least six books with Bavarian and Austrian twisted stitch patterns. I am resolved to finish the socks today. One UFO down - hopefully.
