Major surgery, house move, busy family life and all my yummy mixed media design team commitments. I was delighted at the start of the year to work with IndigoBlu and see my artwork displayed at CHA in Amercia, Germany and England.... I haven't been still !
My love of crochet has never wained.. I constantly have something on the go which can be seen on my Instagram hashtag #littlewrencottagecreations .. hoping this link works.. see {HERE!}
A couple of weeks ago I was admiring a dear crochet friends knitted socks! ... the rest is history!
I have fallen, hook, line and sinker in love with sock making and completed my first sock last week!
It got a bit tricky in places as I didn't really understand what I was doing.. I've made notes and can tell you sock two is working out even better!!
Busy working down the leg from the cuff..
Heel turn, gussets... soon got the better of me but I put in a lifeline and didn't give up!
soon it was time to nervously show my sock to the world.. I can see straight away where I want to improve but for a first attempt.. I am THRILLED!
Ta-da!
I will forever be greatful to the ladies from the sockalong FB group and Winwick Mum for their help and support.. I couldn't have finished my first sock without them!
I'm busy working on sock 2.. and can't put it down..
Happy creating, hooking, knitting, weekend, happy everything!

Woohoo! Your first sock looks fabulous. There's no stopping you now. I found you blog via the intro thread in the not quite enough yarn group in ravelry. Glad I did!
