So, today I nearly finished my most recent monkeys, but I had left my sewing-up needle at home. However, I really wanted to get the almost completed monkeys off the needles so I could cast on another pair. What to do?
So, I thought about what I had around me. I was at the ISU agricultural mechanics shop out at the 450 farm. So, I procured a couple of little pieces of leftover mig welding wire, transferred the stitches onto them, and voila! Rough and ready stitch holders!
The rest of the sock isn’t visible as this pair will be a future gift for someone who might actually read this. Yes, I am working on the Christmas presents already! 🙂 If you want to see them, pictures are available on my Ravelry page.
However, I have started on another pair, this time for me, thus I can show them to you!
And this is one day later!
I’m totally adoring that green, grey and teal together. Can’t wait to wear these!!!
