Time for a knitting update!

Projects: Current

The back of my vest. Need to find the pattern to figure out how many inches to knit after I shape the armholes.


My toe-up sock has a heel! Made a small messup, but it doesn't bug me enough to rip out the heel and do over.


Projects: Planning

I've been planning on knitting a Clapotis for kitchengrrl for about a year. I finally got yarn for it.


Now I'm trying to decide which would work best for the pattern.

All in this tropical colored yarn...


Or the tropical yarn mixed with the darker yarn...


Any opinions?

Yarn

lunassa sent me the last skeins of the handspun she did for me. Isn't it pretty?


Now, what does one do with 6.5 skeins of handspun? I initially thought a vest... and then a shawl... but neither of those are right, now. Any ideas?


I saw there were three skeins of Verdeazul in the 6-ply bulky merino from HandpaintedYarn.com and I snagged them. Now I need a project for them. This yarn is so deliciously soft.

Arrgh. I wish yarn didn't bite me. It's all so pretty.

I like the Clapotis in the mix of tropical and dark, myself.

The Clapotis yarn wouldn't bite you. It's poly/cotton/rayon I think. :)
