The second garment in my Bernardathon is done:

Pattern: Pink, from Custom Knits by Wendy Bernard
Yarn: an alpaca blend from the back room at Bendigo Woollen Mills
Changes: the only one was that I lengthened the sleeves to the wrists.
Comments: it’s a really easy pattern. The gauge is loose for an 8ply yarn (uses 5mm needles) but since it’s an alpaca blend then this possibly prevents it being an uncomfortably warm garment. The v-neck isn’t as low as I was expecting, but I like it anyway.

I’ve started the next project:

It’s Slinky Ribs, which I’m calling ‘Slinky’. I’m planning to skip the button-up split at the front and knit the long sleeved version.

I’ve also started a pair of socks for my Dad:

They need to be done by his birthday at the end of the month, so they’ve been getting more attention than Slinky. After that I’m going to knit a pair for Paul. My Socks for Others Club may be finished, but I’m still happily knitting socks for other people
