Short and Sweet

A sock out of handspun Finn wool, number 2 needles and a new pattern from Wendy Johnson's book Socks from the Toe Up.  Fast knitting, pleasing knitting.  One down and one to go.......

  1. that cat looks as if she's saying: don't you dare take the quilt away:)) you've been very productive, lots of finished projects to show! I love your totes, I have only used bin liners for a crochet bag, not woven... and the pi shawl is lovely (they do say practice makes perfekt - maybe much faster also?:)) pat yourself on the back - you deserve it!
