Knitters Please Come AW

[egeiger]

Several of you were working on things that I am excited to see.  drloretta - any new socks?  aprilsails - the sweater (I think?) you were working on during the megalong car ride? 

I can't knit, but I sure love to see what y'all are doing!

[drloretta]

I'll try and post tonight. I'm test-knitting a pair of socks, and I'm almost done with a crochet project. Expect to see something this week!

I am just finished the main body of the sweater. I didn't get much knitting done since DH sliced open his right foot on some barnacles (we jumped off a bridge!) and couldn't drive for two of the legs (about 14 hours total). Stupid DH didn't knit for me, he just slept.

As a result, I am way behind and since the entire body is lacework it looks like a big mess and I haven't taken photographs.

I will soon!

Gah! Darn it DH! Hope there was no infection.

Luckily not, but he tried his best. He sliced his other foot one week later at Old Orchard Beach on a piece of glass.  Apparently nature hates DH.

But... tonight I finished a quilt top!  Woot!  I will finish the back tomorrow and hopefully baste it this week. Quilting this weekend.

MixedBerryJam - that is an epic afghan.  Nicely done!

I don't have much to show right now. I just finished the 4th sample project in a row, so nothing to share there just yet...
However, this means that I have a little time to work on my own projects, which include this top and these mittens.

Also, I submitted that sweater pattern of mine for a major publication, but have not yet heard back...

Those owl mittens are adorable!

I just finished a couple of baby gifts (crochet, not knit, because I needed to work them up fast)

Those are gorgeous!  Love the colors.  Perhaps I need to learn to crochet too because I'm working on knitting a baby blanket and it looks like a scarf even though I've been working on it from time to time for months.

Upedate! Boot socks are done. I love them!

[drloretta]

Not quite done, but here's some eye candy for you A friend is having twins and asked me to do a pea in a pod set so she can do a nb photo shoot. I finished the cocoon this week and one of the hats, complete with stems. Can't wait to see babies in it!
