Projects from June/July






Well June and July have been really busy so I've really only finished three things. (I have done several orphan socks, but its getting the will to finish the second one that kills.) Anyhow, here are some wonderful pics of the three things I have managed to completely finish in the last two months. The first two pics are of some nice Super Glitz from Cherry Tree Hill. The third and fourth are of a pair of Larry's Meadowlark socks in Bearfoot, and the last is my DH's lovely alpaca/cotton sweater (this I did in a week on size 13 needles.) Well I'm off to start another pair of socks, no bad knitter, bad knitter, I must not leave the orphan socks alone, so I'm off to finish a pair I was supposed to have finised in June.

loosing my blog virginity

Well, I've never posted anything on this blog...I really didn't have that much to say about anything, but I like Liz's idea about using it as a gallery of finished products. So when I actually finish something, process knitter that I am I will post it. However, at this time the only thing that I have finished recently was a sweater for the DH and a pair of socks that will probably eventually be given away. I never seem to be able to keep my own socks, someone's birthday or gift event will come up and there they go, usually to England, to DH's family or something. We have the steps tonight and they are being sorta whiny...(their mother is just ruining them) Anyhow, this is all I think that I will stick on here for now. I think that I will go indulge in some Double Strawberry icecream from Blue Bunny that my DH thinks is his.
