These are socks for my sister's birthday. She is turning the big 28! I love it!!!! (okay so I am only two years behind but I am still the baby) I really like this yarn. I wasn't sure if I really wanted it because it was a gank load of money but I thought I would splurge a little. I will have a lot left over. So I think I am going to make my pal Lindsay a pair for her daughter Daisy.
The angora baby booties that I said I would post a picture of a few weeks back. This also was a total splurge for me. Amy's little sister is pregnant and she is due in August or September....maybe July I forget which month. But I figured they could work for a boy or a girl.
The eyelet lace scarf. I really like these colors. These are just about the colors of my living room and kitchen in my apartment. I have a grape, Old French advertisement theme going on. I think that this is going to be a runner for the Piano but who knows.
This was one of my first scarves ever knit. I still wear this. For some reason I am addicted to lime green. It was knit with a kelly green metallic floss and I still have like a whole spool of it left. I think that is replenishes itself.
On the lime green topic. This is the purse that I am carrying right now. It is grungy and dirty and needs to be retired. I can't wash it, as I forgot to wash the lining first and when I handwashed the matching coin purse it shrunk up to a little ball of disfigurement.
Speaking of purses. These are for the purse I have planned for my spring purse. I don't know what design I am going to use. Probably same ol, same ol. But I really like the lining I picked. I was thinking about using clear plastic handles or something really kitschy to match the lining but haven't figured out what to use yet.
I have more pictures to post but I really have to get house work done today. I keep putting it off, especially the laundry. I am having chicken something for dinner tonight but just can't decide what.
Happy Knitting

I second Shannon - on many fronts apparently. Lime green rocks, I love the new design and I also thought I was at the wrong site at first!
At least your purses have a lining, I always just skip that step because it annoys me.
Your scarf, socks, and booties and blog and everything look super duper cute!
I love your new layout! And the pics are great. I love greens of all kinds too.
I love lime green and sage green. I can't seem to get enough yarn in those colors. I like your new blog!
