Brycie's Outfit and Noro Ribbed Socks
Brycie's OutfitA couple finished objects to report! First up is an outfit for Andrew and Kathleen's new son, Bryson Burton. The whole set is knitted from two balls of the new Morris Empire 4ply in "Plumage". Details for the vest, hat, and socks are all up on Ravelry. The vest was the trickiest, in that I was adapting a Sirdar pattern for 8ply. I ended up just knitting a bigger size and hoping for the best. It worked pretty well! I delivered the set (still a bit damp from the final blocking) to the happy parents on Sunday, and hopefully they'll be able to post a piccie of him in it soon.

Ribbed Noro SocksI also finished the Noro socks I started when I taught the Morris and Sons sock workshop last month. The pattern is Wise Hilda's Basic Ribbed Sock, which I knitted out of Noro Kureyon Sock on two 2.75mm circular needles. (Rav details) I'm really pleased that I got the colour gradients to match up so nicely. (I wasn't actually really trying.) I finished these off yesterday morning before work and put them straight on my feet. Man, there is nothing better than wool socks in winter. I feel my sock mojo starting to come back...

HI there. I love this sweater, but can't seem to find a pattern for it. Are you willing to share your pattern? I'm new to knitting, and hoping I can knit this in the round.

Peace, Maggie

It was Sirdar Snuggly DK 1709. Not sure if it's discontinued, but it looks like some shops online are still selling it.
