Progress and Updates

After blocking the Azure socks - they FIT!!, Granted it takes two of to get them on, but once they are on they look perfect. Note to self when doing toe up socks, switch to a larger needle for bind off and do a pattern that is actually for a mans foot. LOL

I am working on two Kool Haas hats (one for me and one for the husband). The one for me is done using Pumpkin Spice (look familiar Jessi?). This yarn was purchased from ETSY shop (she has some gorgeous hand spun over there now, so lovely).

I am also making progress on my Rusted Root. I have tied off the sleeves and am making my decreases for the bust. It is looking lovely - although a bit small. Lets hope that is deceiving. ;-D I really love Cotton Fleece and hope to find more things to do with it. Also have you seen the new knitty summer yarns - they look yummy!

It is official we are headed to Columbus, Ohio. After the long application process last year, we have our final destination. My husband will be working on his ph.d at OSU. Now to find a place to live and a place to work....any advice on the area would be greatly appreciated. All information is welcome.

Progress and Finishing: It's All a Process

Progress: My husband's Azure socks are coming along nicely. Almost to the heel of the socks. Did I tell you that I love the Claudia's Hand painted - 100% Merino. Lovely colors and even better feel.


Finishing: This is my latest quilt for my MIL for her birthday. You would think that drawing lines, sewing along lines, and cutting would be super fast and you would be right if you stuck with it and didn't go do other projects in the mean time. I am pleased with the full quilt version of my smaller bags. It screams 'SPRING' and that is exactly the effect I was going for. Let's hope she likes it. The picture gives the illusion that it is huge, but it is more of a small wrap quilt. I just don't have the space to do something larger. Maybe someday I will have a craft room....
