Koigu

Image
 Back  to  making  my much loved Koigu  gloves, pair I'm working on will have  a solid  coloured blue as  main colour, then all my odds and sods. I save every bit of leftover Koigu a  meter and  longer, even a meter will add a small stripe or pattern. First pix is all the small amounts of variegated, second are the solid colours, with a pix of the started pair, 32 rows ribbing.  I do have another skein of the main blue. The solid orange is the  last I have, sometime in my travels  I hope to find a Canadian yarn shop that sells Koigu.    I haven't seen a bear in  my yard yet this season, usually by now have pix of 5 or 6.  The  weeds I call grass  (so far) are pretty lush, just enuff rain to keep weeds and dandelions growing like crazy.   Besides the Koigu gloves I also have 2 pair of socks and a pair of bed socks on my needles.
