...4.29...W.I.P. Wednesday...

...well...I used up almost all of my white thread making masks...I really could use other colours of course...but I went ahead and ordered a super-sized spool of white...

...I remember Mom sewing with big spools like this when I was little...I'll have to rig up something to make it work with my machine...or else spin it off onto bobbins...
...so...I thought it would be a good time to do some mending...is it just me...and I'm really hard on unders...or does everyone have this problem...the elastic separates from the panty at the waistline...I don't think I tug on them too much...but I seem to have the same issue with every package...
...Our Airman left behind several white t-shirts...I think they wear tan ones...and I use them in the winter as undershirts...and wear them as an extra layer under my pajamas too...they're just a nice soft cotton for that purpose...but all three of them have sprouted holes under the arms...
...so I just stitched them closed...
....there's a slight pucker there...but it won't be noticeable to anyone...
...and I just patched the unders with some zig-zag...we'll see if it holds...

...in knitting news...I've cast on for the Sonora Cacti Socks...they look like a fun knit...and I'm using the leftover navy blue cotton...and the green and the red are just from stash...
...it's not a difficult pattern...just a simple repeating chart for the cacti...but it has an afterthought heel that I've never done before so that should be interesting...
...and all that stranding makes for a pretty thick sock...so I'll be looking for another solution when I get to the sole...because I'll be doing a princess sole...of course...and that would put the stranding on the outside...just something to think about...

...what's in your workbasket?...

~Have a lovely day!
