Sock update

I have started to knit the sock pattern from Knitty that I mentioned in an earlier thread. I am only about half way through the heel, but it’s not too hard so far. Leon has taken the Mick of the colour. [will update with picture]

I hope to move on to a nice shrug that I have the pattern for, from Simply Knitting magazine. I will have to check how much yarn and of what type I need. I would like to do the sudoku blanket too. The concept of the one in the mini mag is that you don’t repeat the same colour in any square, line or row. I was mildly disappointed that there might be a repeat of pattern though. I think I might make up my own pattern for a sudoku blanket which may be a tad more complicated, we will see.
