SockingIt

I'm looking forward to a collaboration with the most marvellous Linda from Rubies Rags in New Mills to present sock workshops at her fabric shop. It doesn't take much for me to pop out for a visit with someone and the view from her shop is second to none. Sadly on this occasion I had no time for a walk beside the river and along the millennium walkway but I will definitely be doing that very soon. New Mills and the High Peak are a beautiful part of the world and love that they are on my doorstep.

Socks are the perfect project for a knitter on the move. Small and portable they can be popped out of the bag almost anywhere. I had mine with me whilst on jury service (not in the courtroom of course). They are both practical and decorative, a perfect accessory to a formal business suit offering a pop of colour and individuality in a corporate world.

They are a great place to try out new stitches or techniques and offer a fabulous canvas for colour work.
