On the Needles Friday - September 26, 2014

Once again I have taken an extended break from posting anything on my blog but once again I'm back.  It's been almost 2 weeks since I had surgery on my right foot so I had spent the weeks before preparing for my time off my feet.  Preparing not only meant getting meals ready so my husband didn't need to worry about that but getting my knitting projects ready.
 
During the past 11 days I have finished, well almost finished, 2 of my 3 items for Loopy Academy - different post so not to bore anyone.  I also started a pair of socks and this week I started to knit a sweater. 
 
My current project is Circle Socks using Zauberball Crazy Socks in Autumn Sun colorway.  The pattern is written for top down but I'm reversing it and going toe-up 2-at-a-time.  I just turned the heel using Fish Lips Kiss Heel pattern and have less than an inch before I start the circle pattern.
 
 
This week I started something I have wanted to knit, bought the yarn for but just didn't have the time.
Rolling Rock by Thea Coleman.
I love her patterns, I think this is my third and have more in my Raverly favorites I want to knit.  The yarn is Cascade 220 Superwash Sport in Lake Chelan Heather.
 
 
Take a minute and stop over at Patchwork Times and see what others have on their Needles.
