FLS FINISHED!!!

After sitting in my knitting basket for MONTHS waiting on me to sew on the buttons and sew the sleeves; my February Lady Sweater is FINALLY finished!!! Yay!!!


I don't actually like how it looks buttoned up; it looks too streched to me. I didnt actually plan on buttoning it @ all when I started knitting it. But like a dummy, I blindly followed the pattern and added the button holes, so I knew I would have to add buttons @ some point. Other mod's I made: Instead of 3/4 sleeves like all the others, mine is short sleeved. I also knit the sleeves flat and sewed them afterward. What do you think?

Here's another picture of the finished Monkey socks. Aren't they pretty?

Right now I'm knitting a hobo bag in Noro...no pics yet but I'm almost finished with the bag so it shouldnt be too long now.

Here's a pic of my latest FO....the monkey socks all finished! The details:

NeedleSize: 2US Knit Picks sock needles
Yarn: Sweet Berry 100% merino yarn by White Willow (check them out on etsy!)
pattern: Monkey 2006 Winter Knitty

I went to my local WWKIP Day event and finished the toe on the second sock. I think it took me about 2 weeks give or take a few days to finish these. The pattern is easy to memorize; after you do that it just flys by!

Here's a pic of me in the semi-finished Cabled Newsboy Cap. I say semi-finished because I havent decided if I want to put the brim on it or not. Does it need a brim or can it just stay a beanie? I wonder. What say you, dear readers?
