Sock

I have been knitting, it's something I've never done but with family home over the summer I've been learning as I can't bear to do nothing, I have a sock !!!!!!!!!, thanks to some good internet tuition. Knitting in the round was fine and I didn't mind the fine needles but the toe grafting was a bit tricky, I'm not sure I got it 100% right but they're just for me so if it all unravels it's fine. Only another one to knit now. I'm on a roll I've also started a jumper in chunky yarn, it's working up quickly but I hate knitting patterns they're written in a foreign language and it's not the abbreviations that are the problem, a few linking words would make the meaning so much clearer.

No weaving so far, I'm mentally convincing myself to take the deflected double weave warp off the loom, it's slow to weave and I'm sooooooo bored with it. But it's taken ages to warp up and there's loads left on the loom so it means ditching loads of effort which doesn't feel very professional but equally life's too short. I'll mull it over the weekend.
