Made good progress on Tricot:

I'm only making very slight changes to the pattern. I'm increasing the ribbing by 2 rows and I am lengthening the sweater. I may do something different with the collar but then again I may not. It all depends what I feel like when I get to that stage.
The Patons Washed Haze is lovely and soft to knit with and is an excellent substitute for Rowans All Season Cotton (and is alot cheaper as well). Unfortunately, you've got to like blue as that's the only shade it comes in apart from white. I've got a hankering to knit something in pink for the summer.
It's not too late to sign up for the tricotalong. If you want to join just email me at lindaDOTmckie@zoomDOTcoDOTuk.

Finished a sock:

Yarn used was Regia Crazy Colour in the Nordic colourway. I'm not all that crazy about the pattern. I used the one that was supplied as for some reason I thought I had bought one of the sock yarns that makes a fair-isle type pattern. When I wasn't getting a pattern I looked up my order and realised that I had ordered the random pattern yarn. Anyway, it's a bit loose around the heel so I'll use a more tailored pattern on the next pair of socks I knit.

Made gauge first time with Patons Washed Haze:

That's actually 2 shades of blue but the sun is a bit too bright this afternoon so the very light blue looks white. I thought I'd better practice my colour changes at the same time - I think I need more practice!!
The other tricotalongers are:
Alison who's using Cotton Ease in navy and light blue
Chris using Cotton Ease in hydrangea and white (see her April 28th post for the colours)
Petra who's also using Cotton Ease in Blueberry and Orangeade

The only other Tricot, I've seen out there is SavannahChik's who is knitting an orange and red Tricot. Is there any other Tricots out there?

It's May 1st which means it's kick-off time for the:

More to come once I've done my swatch.
