I found this book called "Knitting 2 Socks in 1" by Safiyyah Talley. I have gotten as far as the first heel on my practice piece. I hope this works, as I usually quit after the first sock.

I started the Starflake shawl using Fearless Yarn Speckled Sock in Kiss My Tiara and TuMeke Yarns 100% SW Merino Singles in Tekapo and I just love how it looks so far.
I also finished section 4 of the in the Birdstreet Yarns pink fade set. I'm going to try to finish this before the end of the KAL, which gives me less than a week...

I picked up my after a break and my row counter didn't tally with my notes so I had lost my place. So I ripped out and started over, this time reversing the colour sequence as per Stephen's instructions. I finished sections 1-3 in two days, so I'm off to a good start!

by is now available! I test knit this for Kay and enjoyed knitting the one for my husband so much that I immediately cast on a second one for myself! It's a very enjoyable pattern to knit and has different neckband/collar options, so don't worry if the collars here aren't your thing!
