Pretty In Pink Socks
I'm working on a toe-up sock again...and determined to use up ALL THE YARNZ!!! I worked the sock on my trusty size US 2's and then 3 repeats after the heel, I switched to US size 4's to go over my enormous calf. IT WORKED!!!

Tweed Cardi 1
OK...yes...I'm the most horrible blogger EVER. But look....my tweed cardi is like 97% finished!!! I finished the sleeve since this pic was taken and it's blocking right now. Just have the small decortive tab to add to the back and buttons and I am D-O-N-E!!! I always forget what an epic challenge it is to knit a sweater for myself...but then always love the results!!

Tweed Cardigan
Working on a sweater for myself. It's a free pattern on Rav (http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/tweed-cardigan-3). I think it's going to look really nice in the end but it is SOOOOO boring right now. ::sigh::
