I’m still planning my fade project for the Eat, Sleep, Knit Melting Moments badge. I know that I’m making socks. I’ve added a fifth yarn.
Fade Yarn
The second from the right is the last one I added. It’s Cephalopod Skinny Bugga and the color is Crown of Thorns Starfish. That’s yarn I purchased in July, 2014. How’s that for stashbusting?
I wish I had a yarn to insert between the far left and the next one. I feel like I need something to transition between that very light yarn and the green yarn but, so far, I’ve not found anything. I’m kinda tired of digging for the perfect yarn. I found something that might have worked but it wasn’t ESK yarn.
Knitting Plan
I have a plan. Let’s see if it works. Better yet, let’s see if by this time tomorrow, I can figure out what I meant when I wrote all this!
I think it’s going to be a fun project and I think I may use the leftovers to make All My Stitches. That’s a really popular pattern right now and I think it will be super fun and cozy (fingering weight held double) and it’s free! Maybe before I start it, I’ll come up with something to insert between #1 and #2 on the left. But first things first . . I need to get these socks done and see if the fade in my head translates well to the actual yarn.
