Selma is hemmed

Another attempt was a success and I managed to create a hem for Selma, a ribbing without pulling or excessive ruffling. Now I just realized that I probably don’t have enough yarn. Sleeves from different dye lot, perhaps, that won’t do too much damage to overall look…

When shopping the 100 cm circular for that hem something snapped in my head and I bought two balls of Noro Silk Garden Lite. I have a love-hate relationship to Noro yarns. I love the rustique feel of those yarns and love the overall look. But colours tend to hurt my delicate eye. This particular shade, however, makes me think spring. And at this time of year I’m somewhat sensitive to such thoughts.

Makes me think spring, why? Well, have a look inside…

I’m thinking socks. I shall begin from the toe with this clever magic cast on, knit a nice basic sock with better heel that I ever made for toe up socks (at least this looks like one).
