What to knit with self-striping yarn that's not socks

Oh wow, long time no blog huh! I'm going to just jump right in with some inspiration on what to knit that's not socks.

I will be honest with you i really don't like hand knitted socks in 4ply, i has so much to do with my tension and them ending up like fishnets after a few wears no matter what needle size i use.

Rift Tee

Rift Tee take one I thought i would take an arty photo of my just finished Rift Tee Rift by Jacqueline Cieslak You know, sun in my face, countryside in the background. I have no idea whats going on with my hair, there was too much sun in my eyes but great shot of the Tee. the colour pooling looks like boobies and now i cant unsee it. oh dear. I used some deeeeeeep stash quince and co and over-dyed it. its an ok yarn, not hard against the skin, not splitty, worked across my needles with relative ease....
