Sock Monkey

Here are a couple little hats I made for Neo Pechey. I think they turned out cute, and little Neo is a cutie too! That's a lot of cute for one place, but I think his parents can handle it.

Current Projects

Actually, I have quite a few more projects than this on the needles, but these are the ones I am actively working on just now...

Project Shrug: I am doing this one along with Maggie. I guess I didn't print out the pattern for this one because it's pretty much a rectangle. You can see what I'm making here. I think it's going to be nice and warm and comfy and I love the colors of this yarn. It's Lion Brand Homespun in Painted Desert.

Project Wisteria: I also decided to do the current Lion Brand knit-a-long, which is this sweater. I've been wanting to do SOMETHING with the Amazing yarn since it came out, so here it is. The colors are beautiful! Thanks to Sarah for picking the color for me by name over the phone...good choice! The color is called Arcadia.




Project Real Sweater: I started this sweater last winter, but have not worked on it during the warm weather.  I have pulled it out again to finish. This will be my first actual sew-it-all-together sweater. With cables even! I chose purple of course :)  So far I have 2 sleeves done and most of the back. Not too far to go!Posted by Picasa

Flounce


Finally found something to be knitting on at the beach. Went to a little book/yarn store yesterday and got this yarn called "Flounce". The lady in the shop showed us how to knit with it and I started my scarf about half an hour ago. It comes out nice and ruffly (sp?). The pic looks kind of bluish, but the yarn is actually purples (of course!) Lovin' it!

Finished Just in Time!


So, I did the Bernat Crochet-a-long that started back in September I think, and made all my little squares. The deadline for sending in my picture to be considered for the drawing was midnight on the 31st. I sent my pic at 11:55pm!! I spent the last 4 days sewing all these little guys together and getting some border on it. I like the colors and I think it turned out pretty good. I'll not be in a big hurry to do another blanket that requires sewing a bunch of squares together though...whew!
