See? Only 3 more to go. :)


This would be a sewn seam. Only 1 more of these to go.



Still in love with the colors. Sure hope he is!

Almost there....



These are decreases. This is what they look like when you do them properly. It only took me two tries to get it to look this way. >.<

I hate counting. It's so overrated.

Ugh.

'A Wool Gathering'

The Yarn Harlot has made up a new word. "Kinnearing" I will wait while you read this post.

I was a Kinnearer before she coined this phrase (as evidenced by my post with the dog tire cover...).

This shot:

is my latest Kinneared photo. Not to shabby if you ask me. Taken while on the road from Columbus to Yellow Springs for the annual 'A Wool Gathering'.

This may or may not be a photo of people that I do or do not know. They may have threatened me if I posted it. Or maybe they didn't...



This would be the best photo of the day:


and of course...no fiber festival is complete until you see the smooshy animals!




And then...the weirdest thing I've ever seen...



Abby looks confused, too:


Not to mention, the sheep:

Beginning to look at lot like xmas....

So....THIS:

 

is what I started last night. THIS will remain NAMELESS, because it is an Xmas gift for MBF. So, if you recognize what it is, or have theories...keep them to yourself! (hint hint...those fibers are rather trendy, yeah?)

 

Aren't those lovely colors?

Dish Rag Tag!

I left all of my photos of the box I received AT HOME! I'm such a dork! So, I'll be posting them in reverse order.

Here is what happens when you grab the 5mm needles instead of the SIZE 5 needles:


Lisa wanted no part of that rag, assuming I finished it, which I did NOT. Ew.

Take #2 (well, #4 whatever!):

This is right after work, while helping V study for a spelling test. (6-7pm)


While on the phone with MBF (8:30-9:30pm) then 11:30-12:15am while half asleep. :P


Lunchtime the following day.


Finish Line! About 9:30pm....off to the airport post office!

I also sent two balls of the self striping yarn, one blue and one pink; and candy...a candy necklace, Razzles, and Jelly Bellys!

Another V FO



Whoever thought this pattern would be "easy" for a 8-10 year old was on crack. That's a set in collar, so you have a curve going one way that has to match with a curve going the opposite way. All of the girls had a really tough time with it. However, it's complete, with only one pucker! She loves it.

Edited to add:

I never posted her pajama pants!!
