Bad Blogger
I realised this morning that if I don’t post something today that I won’t have posted anything at all this month and I’m sure that would make me a very bad blogger indeed. I have not been neglecting the site (despite external evidence to the contrary). I’m running out of space with my hosting package and I’m doing a lot of behind the scenes twiddling at the moment to make this affair a leaner, meaner, fighting machine. I’ve also got some grand plans bubbling away. Rest assured more patterns are coming.
I’ve been knitting steadily too (of course). I muttered the frightful words “there will be no knitting tomorrow, I have to get some work done” earlier in the week. I was of course lying, there was knitting just not so much of it. If you have a Ravelry account you can see some of my recent work (my Ravelry username is vintagepurls), nothing particularly vintage right at the moment though.
Here is my favorite cutey project of the minute:
Baby socks - always a classic. These are toe up numbers (my pattern), the yarn is one of my dye jobs (green machine). The little picot hem makes a darling turn down cuff:

Edit: Okay despite what the date at the top of the post says it’s the 31st in my corner of the world. Stupid time setting, hopefully future posts will reflect the timing of my reality better.
