Since last posting before Christmas and the following bushfires I have managed to do a little bit of creating. I have been knitting socks as they are an easily transported activity that doesn’t take up much room as it is one ball of wool and four needles.
I have managed to complete two pairs of socks and I have two more balls left to use.
I also, before Christmas, knitted a beanie for my sister. The wool was possum wool that I bought when we were in New Zealand.
It is indeed a beautiful beanie. I am looking forward to wearing it in Scotland!
Certainly the weather there is more suited to beanie wearing.
I am good on beanies but have 2 admire your socks – they are so cool 😎
I love how the ball of wool creates the pattern.
Possum wool is stunning.
It is such a lovely soft wool.
I love all three of your projects. I never knew possums had wool!
The possum wool/fur is mixed with merino and silk or it would be too soft for sock knitting. The wool is so beautifully soft.
I love the colours in your possum wool, very pretty!
