Some socks, a scarf and one of my oldest UFO's is what has been gracing my needles this week.
The socks on the left are for me, the ones on the right are for my Sockapal2za Pal. I had some yarn in the stash that was already suitable for her socks, so I had to cast on right away. The colors are a a bit more vibrant than that, the yellow is really chartreuse and not so golden. I even used the random stripe generator for some help with the stripes. I'm rather pleased with the results.
A seaman's scarf from Stahman's Shawls & Scarves in the Joan pattern is being knit out of some leftover Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino that I had in the stash. These scarves are all about process for me for some reason.
And finally, the Shoalwater Shawl pattern that I cast on for last October and then promptly stopped knitting on it when I had my little knitting hiatus over the holidays.
20 yards of my first 2 ply handspun! I have about a 100 yards more but it's not as nicely plied as this one.
And how could I leave you without a picture of Ada? Here she is cuddling up with her Santa. Who said Christmas only comes once a year?
That looks just like my table this week, except mine has a few more wip on it and none are as far along as yours. Can't seem to get out of the starting rut; I've been knitting about an inch on things before tossing them down and casting on the next.
Ada is one sweet little dog. That face!

Jill,
Your spinning is very nice and so even. I love the color of the roving. What will you make with it?

Looks like your spinning is going very well. Good for you! I LOVE the shawl.

Wow! Love the socks. If I were knitting the purple ones, I'm not sure I'd be willing to give them away.... ;)
