The main body is done and I&#8217;m 20 rows from the end of the first sleeve. Sadly, one ball of yarn was not sufficient for the sleeve, so I&#8217;m waiting for an extra ball to arrive. The picture is of the main body up to just before the split for the armholes. I&#8217;m finding that knitting with cotton for long periods of time is quite tiring on the hands, particularly the left hand, so I&#8217;m taking a break for a couple of days.<\/p>\n<p>The new WIP are some socks for a friend who has a lot of pain in her feet. We&#8217;ve talked a lot about how socks need to be constructed for her, so I&#8217;m hoping these will help. We settled on a toe-up construction with plain foot, reinforced flap and gusset and a lovely cabled pattern on the leg. So far I have a toe.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/webIMG_2295.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-179\" title=\"Swift\" src=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/webIMG_2295-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/webIMG_2295-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/webIMG_2295-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/trundlebug.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/webIMG_2295.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>Oh, and I mentioned a parcel in the post that would help an aspect of knitting go more swiftly&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This is the yarn for the socks, from <a title=\"Violet Green\" href=\"http:\/\/www.violetgreen.co.uk\">Violet Green<\/a> in colourway Lavendular.<\/p>\n<p>The lurgy has hit us all big-time, so knitting isn&#8217;t going as quickly as it might.
