Fourth and Final

Hello on this rainy Tuesday!  I hope you're safe and well; we're good here. 

I completed the final clue for the Casapinka Cowl KAL last evening:

Of course there are 8 billion ends to work in, and I haven't even worked in the ends on the KAL shawl that I finished knitting a month ago now, but I like them both a lot!

I continue to make progress on the yoga socks, and will be winding some yarn for upcoming projects.

Speaking of which - October Gift was released today, and it's a beret.  So - Neuro is already covered with her awesome new line of colorwork hats, and I have some super bulky yarn that I'm curious about trying, so hats it is!  I'm off in search of a pattern.

In other news, this weather makes me want to do more stuff in the kitchen.  Lately I've been on a homemade crouton kick, mostly because I keep forgetting to buy croutons when I get salad fixins.  And I had a bunch of old (somehow non-moldy) bread in the fridge.  Dust on a bit of oil (butter and/or olive), salt, pepper, perhaps garlic power and a bit of parm, bake for 10 minutes.  We may end up getting bread just so it can go stale and become croutons, LOL.  These would also be delicious on soups and chili, and it's getting to be the crock pot time of year again.  I haven't tried any new recipes in a while, since there have been so many awesome old ones, but it's always fun to experiment.

Colorful Booties and Socks

Image
It is the Year of Colorwork, but mostly what I've done so far is produce a few color ful items!  I've been making this baby bootie pattern for years, mostly from leftover sock yarns.  This particular yarn is what remained from last fall's Flamewalker Socks .  That these booties stand up all by their jaunty selves makes them particularly appealing. These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

Wingspan, Part I

Image
I have two skeins of Classic Elite Alpaca Sox yarn that absolutely refuse to become socks. They pool, they gap, they otherwise cry and carry on in all sorts of ways. So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!

I've been busy, but I don't have much to show for it - yet. You will be seeing a lot of finished lace in the coming days, so stay tuned! In the meantime, here are two pillows that I dyed and knit for friends who are getting married next week.
