Yeah it’s been a while since I’ve posted photos of a finished project, hasn’t it? These were finished over a month ago but I hadn’t taken photos yet.

Well here are the legendary Toe Up 2 socks on 2 circs made with the Koigu my parents got for my birthday last year. I’m so friggin proud of these. That Crazy Heels and Toes book is really good. A bit hard to follow in some parts but if you read the instructions over a few times and follow slowly you get some great socks!

Happy Birthday Socks!

This is the lengthwise shawl I made with a bunch of cool yarn I bought at ArtFibers when I was in San Francisco so I consider this my major souvenir from the trip. It’s mostly knit on US 15s but I would change needles or yarn whenever I felt like it. I also cut the yarn to make the fringe at the end of every row. As usual the fringe is big and shaggy and varies in lengths. I love that craaazy fringe. I’d say with the fringe this puppy is 8 feet long? Way longer than I am tall anyway. It’s so soft and gorgeous I can’t wait for it to get cold. Next year during that cruise, I’m kidnapping Jocelyn and heading straight for their store the minute we dock.
