Knitting, knitting...lots of knitting...

...and a little sewing...

I finished the Summer Lacy Top!!! 



I thought I never would.



This little project took up two years of my life.  Not continuously, of course, because it was in total time out for about a year, but still.  The pattern drove me crazy with the shoulder and neck shaping (mainly because of limited direction)...so I totally did my own thing there.  I loved knitting it (both times) though.  It really was enjoyable.  The yarn was yummy - albeit a little hard on the hands.  It is Marisol Yarn Wach'i - a beautiful cotton and silk blend and I love the color.  It was a happy experience overall - despite the bumps in the road.

I even wore it today - hence the self photography.

Here are the cute little burpies I made the other day.  I use prefolded diapers and slap a little fabric on them - and Bob's your uncle!



Now, the dreaded Aragorn socks need to be finished, but since I missed the deadline for the challenge by a mile, I figured I can work on them quietly in the background while I move the Saroyan and the Lavendar Cardigan to the forefront. 

The MT MCN in Oceana came yesterday:



I think it is the best choice for the Lazy Girl Shawl.  I intend to start it on Sunday afternoon.



So, that leaves me with two skeins of Oceana on Tosh Merino Light...what to do...what to do?



MK out.
