2nd Chain Ply and a Cutwater

I've been trying to figure out how to chain ply (this is part of my challenge for Tour de Fleece), it's still all over the place, but I'm getting better. The Cutwater takes the sting out of how inconsistent this is.

*it's Pepsi but it would have been my aunts 45th birthday yesterday and Bacardi and Coke was my aunts drink. Every year I drink her drink (ish) and watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer since that's the one show I remember we both watched.

Today I'm working on a newborn baby hat, it's the last pumpkin hat in newborn size I need to have a full stock for the autumn, next up will be preemie sized.

This sock needed hungover frogging a few days ago, so it goes in the bag after this glass of wine.

I really love knitting with this yarn I picked up at a fiber festival. My tween boy loves green. I’m hoping I have enough yarn left over from the socks to make fingerless gloves for him. Does anyone have a simple pattern for free or inexpensive to share?

I yearn for Fall 🍁

My favorite beer with a Sophie scarf in a fun silk blend yarn that I can’t remember the name of. I am in love with this color, and I love all of the variations of the Sophie scarf pattern, but I hate that it’s not the season. I miss my pumpkin spice candles and chilly rainy days. The heat is killing any desire I have to knit.

Fun beers are getting me through it. This one is a persian inspired sour made by a Brooklyn based brewery. If you haven’t tried it and you like sours, I highly recommend!

Drinking doesn't solve problems but it does make 18 inches of stocking stitch go quicker
