Norwegian Sweaters, Scrubbies, and More Socks
Here’s My “Favorite” Sweater from Drops Designs # 52-11
The main two colors are superwash sport-weight wool in creme and a heathered rose, that actually has a bit of kelly green and some light grey running through it~very pretty! The band at the bottom is a nine-patch of red and white with teal and a heathered blue on each side of it. I’m sorry I can’t give the name of the yarn b/c the company is no longer in business 
And when my hands got sore from working on my sweater, I made this little beauty:
It’s crocheted, and you can find the free pattern here. This pattern was made by Judith Prindle.
These are socks I made for my friend, Carol, who owns Red River Yarn in Heber Springs. They are made from Patons Grace in “Teal” (unfortunately, this particular color is discontinued). This pattern is from the
Favorite Socks book. They are called “Meida’s Socks” by Nancy Bush. It’s a fun cabled lace pattern, and the eye-of-partridge heel adds so much great texture to the rest of the design (not to mention it holds up a bit better than a regular slip stitch rib on the heel flap).
Eye-of-Partridge Stitch (Use an even number of stitches)
Row 1 (right side): *Sl 1, K 1* repeat across ending K 1.
Row 2 and even rows: Sl 1, purl across
Row 3: Sl 2, *K1, Sl 1* repeat across, ending with K2.
