💗Weekend plans ☕️😊. What’s on your needles that you’re loving this weekend?

😁I can’t wait to show you all more of what’s become my fave sweater ever. I’ve been working on this lovely since last winter...🙊...I know...I’m slow...lol...but I’ve spent the last five days grading this upcoming cardi pattern and - phew - I think its done (aside from my eyes feeling like their bleeding...haha)! A bit of formatting and off to the tech editor it goes! Hopefully I’ll be posting a testing call sooner than later🤞🏻😁. I’m currently knitting my second sample in @yarnonthehouse Father because I def need more than one of this bad boy in my life.

🤭 You guys - I finished the socks!!!! Mind you I haven’t taken them off long enough to block them yet (or weave in the ends...lol 🙊) but they are done! This is a huge deal for me - I never finish socks 🧦🙌🏻. Soooo... question for you friends - which pair to cast on next? I want to knit up a pair in the contrast color yarn shown here. Yarn is 👌🏻 and it’s Mondim by @rosapomar. 😃 Any suggestions on your fave sock patterns? Or should I make another pair of #smoothoperatorsocks?

🏡After a few plane rides to visit my hometown (I haven’t been home in 10+ yrs) to see family (specifically my Omi who has advanced dementia) I finished these lovelies. I enjoyed every stitch and they brought me solace during an emotional trip. I will never look at sock knitting the same again 💕.
