Criss Cross Mitts, Intarsia Knitting

I had wanted to do this combination of the Criss Cross Mitts and have posted them on Etsy. I also posted the view of the inside out to show how really nice the inside is...with no strands on the inside. This is perfect for two color combinations and love the look. May have to put this down on paper if I get enough requests.

Scrunch Socks Finish Project!!!!

Received a wonderful picture and note from a woman who knitted the Scrunch Socks. She bought the pattern from my Etsy Shop https://www.etsy.com/listing/96835135/scrunch-cable-socks-pattern-only
I love how she increased the size to fit her foot and the finish product is perfect!

"i just finished the socks and heres a picture! it was a wonderful pattern to learn! they are looking fantastic but in order for them to fit i had to repeat the diamond pattern 6 times in total 3 on the leg and 3 on the foot and i wear size 9 so i don't know if you maybe have put it wrong on the pattern or not. just thought you should know. I made them in cotton and my mom is making them in wool :) 

these were the first socks i ever made so I'm happy they turned out so nicely" TB

TB knitted Scrunch Socks

Scrunch socks again....

Still trying to finish up the criss cross mitts that I have been working on....then comes another order for those Scrunch Socks. I guess my biggest complaint is that they sell so well and that isn't a complaint...it is just that I can't seem to get to the projects that I want to work on. Decided to finish up the Criss Cross Mitts and post them on Etsy before I start another pair of Scrunch Socks! Wowwwweeeee.
