Bar Towels, Dish/wash cloths and YOU!!! :)

I've been trying to knit down some of my cotton stash and I'm using a pattern from an episode of Knitty Gritty by Star Athena for various bar towels. I plan on using this one as a hand towel in my bathroom b/c it's knit out of that lavender scented yarn from Sugar n' Creme.

 This one is some mystery cotton that I wasn't sure if I was going to have enough of, so I made it into a dish/wash cloth.

...and then I turned around and it BIT HER!!!

I knit my sweetpea a pair of feet eater slippers from the book Knitting MochiMochi and I think she loves them! I knit them on size 6 and 8 US with Plymouth Yarn's Encore worsted (it's an acrylic/wool blend).

My bestie and I went to see a lady from Craig's List about some yarn last week. Check out what we scored!!!
There was raw wool/fleece both processed and unprocessed (full of pee and poo!!!), antique wheels, yarn on cones, in hanks, wool from New Zealand and silk!! It was C-R-A-Z-Y!!! And this isnt all of it!

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!!!
