199 The system21 Jul 202400:30:32

Knitting the slowest sock in the history of sock knitting. Tour de Fleece. The merits of taking small steps vaguely in the direction a goal. I’m thinking about style again, and looking for systems.

In this episode: Bias binding; finished objects; crafting chaos; plum blossoms; works in progress; and palette decisions.

Lilly's retro-vibe pinnies are finished! Several knitsibs have expressed an interest in an adult-sized version. I'm still looking, but if you know of something similar, drop a comment at the website, please.

The pattern is Bias Trimmed Apron from Little Things to Sew, by Oliver & S, in lightweight linen fabric with bias binding in designer fabrics purchased from this UK eBay seller.

The Sock is not at a very interesting place, but there has been a bit of a progress in this WIP. The yarn I'm using is Coop Knits, Socks, Yeah! in the colour Labrodorite.

Lastly, Gene Marshall is a rabbit hole. You have been warned.
