Trying to catch up!

Here is the finish of the 3rd clue in the MysticLight KAL. I'm using Schaefer Anne in the Mediterranean Sunset color with 4.5mm circular Options needles.
It is getting too wide for me to stretch out the entire shawl so here is half of it pinned out. I don't know that I am totally happy with the stitch definition with this pattern. There have been some better choices made that show the pattern and stitches much better. I finished clue 3 on Friday after Clue 4 was released last Wednesday. I have about 4 rows done of Clue 4 and Clue 5(final clue) is to be released tomorrow. I will finish this shawl!
These are the Leafling Socks which are the latest installment of the STR Sock club 2008. I am somewhat up to date with this years kits but still have 3 or 4 more the knit up from the previous 2 years. These socks are into the gusset. Slowly but surely getting them finished.
These are the Lilac socks that are pictured on the home page of the TownsendSocksKnitALong yahoo group. I'm using Dream in Color Smooshy in Cool Fire. I think they will turn out very pretty. Love this yarn! It's my first time using it. I purchased it from The Loopy Ewe.
That's all for now. I hope I can get going on these three projects as I have lots more to start and also finish up!

The Harlot comes to town!

Saturday, April 5th was the evening Stephanie Pearl-McPhee was in Lexington, Ky at Joseph-Beth Booksellers on tour to promote her latest book, Things I Learned from Knitting...whether I wanted to or not.

Here we are holding each other's socks!
It was also a great evening because I got to hook up with a friend that I only knew from some of my Yahoo groups, Peggy. Scroll down to the April 7th entry to see a picture of us together at Joseph-Beth.

Mystic Lights Clue 1 finished

Here is clue 1 of the Mystic Lights KAL. I think it's turning out good using the Schaefer Anne in Meditterranean Sunset.
So then I moved on to work on the latest installment of the STR sock club. Above the cuff is finished with SiSi overseeing the progress.
Here I have finished the first repeat of the leaf pattern on the leg. I put that away for today and started work on the Orkney Pi again. I will take a picture of my progress so far and try to post that tomorrow.

Forgot to post

my last FO. This is the "Love to Knit With My Friends" dishcloth. You can find the pattern in the Rachels KNitting Room yahoo group. I used Lily Sugar'n Cream Solid in Hot Pink using 3.5mm circular needles. Started on Monday 3/17 and finished on Saturday 3/22. It was the March KAL.

Special delivery!

As you can see...I received the next installment of the Rockin Sock Club. It's green! I'm usually not crazy about green but I love this one. It is a beautiful bright green and the pattern looks great too. Can't wait to cast on. Will post progress later on the Summer of Love Lace socks.

Not just an illusion...

An Illusion Bunny Dishcloth from the Monthly Dishcloth yahoo group. Also on the Monthly Dishcloth Challenge blog.

No catchy titles

for this post. My brain is too tired to think of anything. Anyway, I have finished 3 of these dishcloths this week and almost finished another pinks and white. So that will be four in a week's time. I needed to beef up my supply.
I finished up the sleeves of the Central Park Hoodie Friday night. I have not blocked them out yet. Will do that probably next weekend. (Cat is included for scale)
That's all I got...off to bed for me!

Grandmother's Favorite dishcloth

Started & finished today! Sugar 'n Cream 1 pound cone. Don't remember the color. Started another, will probably finish tomorrow.

Slip slidin away...

We finally had a good snow this winter. 6 inches here in town. So I did what any normal person would do...knit! (and laundry)

I finally finished up the Solstice Slip socks. Now on to the Summer of Love Lace. I hope to finish those before the next installment of this year's BMFA sock club arrives later this month.
