One Finished Slipper - Ah, Ah AHHHHHHH!

Happy Monday!  I hope this finds you safe and well; we're good here!

The first slipper has been sewn!


Benson is looking a bit puzzled because I plopped the slipper right on top of his squeaky toy that he was hoping I'd throw for him to fetch.

I also realized that the unfelted slipper is about as big as he is!!

I continue to work on the NNWA; it's starting to get a bit unwieldy, but I'd rather have it on me during the colder months than contend with it when it's warm!  (No problem with that for a while, LOL)

Oogyhubby helped a friend with a downed tree and they brought some of the wood over yesterday.  One of the pieces looks like a giant chicken - it freaks both of us out, and Benson wanted to attack it - he had full, head-to-tail hackles at it this morning.  I should take a pic, although up close it probably just looks like a hunk of wood.

In wildlife news - we saw a deer appear briefly last evening at the edge of the forest.  The black cat has been patrolling the field lately, hopefully getting any critters before they head for the house!

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.
