Chips, Dips, Chains, WIPs

Ok, well I have the WIPs covered. My 2 latest projects. First up the Venezia Sweater from the SnB Calendar. Most of the patterns, I skip over but this one caught my eye. It is so quick that I have nearly finished the back in about 4 days.

My other mindless knitting project is the self-patterning socks. Not my favoritie but they are growing on me. With these, I am actually knitting the leg to the length I think I should have been all along. I always have half of my yarn leftover.
