I started this pair of socks in the Hermione pattern--it has a very subtle dark green value but it is for all intents and purposes like a black yarn and very hard to work on at night!
Even so, I have very good lighting for my evening knitting and I couldn't do it without it!
I've made a little notebook with real watercolor paper for the daily watercolors. I do not join a group to participate;
I just like the personal challenge!
I bought this little metallic watercolor set--
with all of these highly reflective colors because I knew the first day had---
the prompt of CRYASTAL.
I knew what I wanted to make and had fun drawing it out.
The paints just add to the sparkle which was fun to paint!
The prompt for yesterday was an immediate idea, too--
this is the suit of the South!
Socktober and Inktober!!! You are off to a great start. I like the book idea. All my Inktober cards are just rubber banded together. You are so tempting me to try to catch up but I don't even know where I would set up my paints at this point. Darn.
ReplyDeleteNow I want fried chicken! And your socks in dark colors are twice as admirable
ReplyDeleteThat's a great sock pattern, isn't it? You are so brave to knit with such a dark color! And you certainly are multi-talented; I had no idea you could also watercolor. You are amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post. I love the sock color although I would only be knitting them during hte day and Colonel Sanders makes me hungry of Extra Crispy chicken. :-)
