Finished heel!

I haven't done much knitting since I got back from holiday, so it's taken until today to finish the heel:


All is not going smoothly, however - I twisted some stitches when starting the leg, and now have to do some complicated untangling. Writing this blog post is useful procrastination ;-)

I've also been doing some weaving on the red leaf wrap (no photos, cos they wouldn't look any different from the last time I photographed it), after showing the loom off to my parents yesterday re-enthused me about the project :-)

Holiday knitting

I've just come back from a week roleplaying in Lincolnshire, during which I did quite a lot of knitting - my second pair of push-me-pull-you socks, for R this time (on the equivalent roleplaying holiday last year, I also made socks for him). I took this photo as I was just about to turn the heel:

The heel is progressing slowly so far, because I got my yarns mixed up and had to tink about three rows, but I think I've got it fixed now.
