Inspiration is a funny thing. I have been dabbling with the beginnings of several projects for a while. I had a couple of large garments in mind, neither of which got further than swatching and in fact, nothing was really whispering “knit me!” in my ear.
And then on the Angel Yarns forum, I came across the Broadripple sock pattern.
“Hang on a minute,” thinks I. “I have Cascade Fixation in my stash. I could knit these!”
So I did!
And for fans of the legs, a shot of one leg looking wistfully out the window…
It’s a simple pattern, though not so simple that it’s boring, and Cascade Fixation is very interesting to knit with. It knits up with a nubbly, towelling texture and by gum it’s streeeeeeeeeeeeeetchy!
It feels good to be inspired. I hope it lasts.
