knitting fun

Finally my sweater is making progress, the body is almost done and I can go on to the sleeves with an intriguing cable pattern. And the alpaca yarn I'm using is so soft and warm, it's a pity that the sweater will be finished in time for spring to be put away until next winter. But knitting it is fun, no matter when I will be able to wear it.

Besides, I'm knitting a pair of toddler socks in Slytherin colors, I'm sure my little brother will be a Slytherin too when he is grown up.

Now I'm thinking about teaching myself how to make stitch markers, then I could make the markers for my swap pal myself. But I'm not sure if I will find the time for yet another craft, knitting, dyeing and crochet already take a lot of time. I will tell you if I make a decision about this.

Oh, and I have to look for a sock pattern for my pal, I don't have the slightest idea right now. Perhaps I should browse her blog a bit more, to find out what she might like.

Wow, that late already? I have to hurry to class now or I will be late for Potions....
