WIP Wednesday: Week 50

WIP Wednesday a day late, as I forgot to take photos yesterday :-P

I finished one crocheted pig and started another :-D After Lars saw the one I made Jordan, he told me I had to make one for my brother-in-law as well, as he apparently really loves pigs :-) So I got that done over the weekend, and then promptly started another one for Jordan, as he'd asked if I'd make him a white one as well :-P


Once I finish that one, I'll probably take a break from making any more for awhile. They're easy enough to make, but get rather fiddly when sewing the parts together.

Nina recently sent me a text message asking if I would pleeeeeeeeease knit Christian another pair of socks, as his old ones were getting worn out. Of course I couldn't say no to that, and as I already had suitable yarn, I cast on for a pair right away. The pattern is Bootstraps by Lara Neel but with a modified heel as hers included breaking yarn and grafting the heel and I really didn't feel like doing that! :-)
I should be able to finish these by Jan 15th, no sweat.

And as usual, I'm knitting on Peter's cardigan. It's slooooow progress but fortunately completely mindless knitting at the moment. I think I have another 20'ish cm to go on the body and then I get to start knitting in the round for the sleeves! Weee!!!
I in no way expect to be finished by Christmas, but that's okay. I just want to have a decent amount done so Peter can get a proper idea of what it will look like :)
