Hi everyone. Thank you for all the well wishes on Friday. I was out of sorts last week and everything is okay now, but all your nice comments helped. :) This week we've had great weather has it's been cold enough to wear the hand knits and storming. I love being inside when it's cold and rainy!
As far as WIPW, I can't take a picture of my progress on my husband's socks, as he's been home sick all day. He still doesn't know I'm working on the socks (or at least I don't think he does) so I don't want to spoil the surprise by taking them out for a pic. I hope you understand!
Here's my progress on the glove! It's slow going since I've been exclusively working on the socks in hopes to finish them by Christmas. I do hope to finish this glove as soon as the socks are done though!
I'm a huge fan of Slipped Stitch Studios knit bags and so when I heard about her Doctor Who Bag of the Month I had to get it. I don't think I've showed it to you yet, but this is the large one (it also came with a sock bag size). The amazing thing about this? It fits my big 17" snap frame for my cross stitch, my box with all my stitching supplies and my pattern with room to spare! Amazing right??!! It's a great way to carry around and to be able to stitch at any time. :)
Speaking of stitching, here is my progress. As you can see I'm on day 15. I'll show you more details later on, maybe this Friday! I've finished a LOT of squares you have yet to see. Despite being behind on this, I love it so much and adore cross stitching! YAY!
That's it for me today. I hope you have a great day and rest of the week.

I love your glove. Those stitches are adding great texture! I too love cross stitch and have been diligently working away on a project for Christmas - I love yours!
I'm impressed you're able to keep your husband's socks a secret from him! I'm not sly enough to get away with something like that. The cross stitch calendar is absolutely AMAZING! You're doing a wonderful job on it.
I love the Dr. Who fabric! I wonder where she got that from? It would be perfect for a pillowcase for my son-in-law! I bought some Star Wars fabric to make one for my son. Somehow it got lost in the sewing room. Guess he isn't getting that for Christmas.
The yarn for the gloves is so lovely, the colour and the excellent stitch definition. It must be difficult to knit hubby's socks without him knowing. Glad the Dr Who bag is so useful.

ReplyDeleteSpoonflower.com is where the fabric came from! They have several Doctor Who patterns there. :)
DeleteI love your Doctor Who bag, and the yarn you chose for your gloves is beautiful.

ReplyDeleteThe glove is so pretty, and what a fun bag!!
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time linking up to WIP Wednesday - thanks for hosting! I love your cross stitch project - adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy, love the blue glove, anxious to see it progress. Days almost over and finally...I'm here to add a link and get some visiting done.
ReplyDeleteI am very confused by the Dr. Who bag. Isn't that Van Gogh's "Starry Night?"
ReplyDeleteThat is such a yummy color for that glove! And the Kawaii cross stitch is cute as always. What will you do with it? Frame it?
