Purty new things

Hey errybody that may still read this. Sorry bout an extreme lack of updates. Over winter i managed to knit two really awesome hats, some scarves, and now that brings me to the summer knitting season. I picked up the Spring/Summer Vogue knitting issue, and fell in love with the first pattern in it- for a really gorgeous beaded shell. I'm not sure if i'll do the beading or the ribbon work, but who knows? I just hope to have it done for the beach, and as this is my first really complicated/wearable item i hope it turns out at least 'pretty good'. So, here a pic of the "finished product" as in the magazine: And here's what i have thus far: The yarn the pattern calls for (and for once the one i used) is Plymouth "Fantasy Naturale" which i got 7 skeins for $33, amazing price thanks Kathy at Kathy's Kreations. I'll keep this updated as i move along, and try to get some pictures of those hats up too!

warm n toasty

I made a sock! word! Dude(s and 'ettes) - it was easy as pie. Getting the 2nd one to match the first has been a wee issue (knit too much ribbing at the top... i don't think i'm going to frog it just because of that).. the 1st one i messed up joining the knittin' to a circle, and had one stitch too many which i had to deal with later and it kind of made a mess, but i so don't care, it looks like a sock which is all it has to do. the pattern was pretty easy too. yay for socks!
