WIPs and a trip
I know it has been a while since I have posted my progress on current projects. I have started a couple new things in the past week or so. First off, the Short Row Hat. This is a fun project and I liked how the yarn (Noro Silk Garden) was working until the big strip of green hit but maybe it won't be so glaring when it is finished.
A group of us from PurlyGirls headed out to Bainbridge Island yesterday for Churchmouse's Yarn Sale. We got the a bit after it started and some of the people there had huge bags full of yarn. I was amazed at how much people were buying. I managed to find 7 skeins of Hemp for Knitting hemp/wool blend to use for the Pimlico Shrug from Knit 2 Together. Only a little over $4/skein! We also checked out the local fabric store where Mara, Meg and I decided to sign-up for a beginning sewing class. After lunch and a stop at the bakery, we took the ferry back to Seattle. I ended the day by going to the Seattle Sounders games with the fam.
New socks on the needles- The Cross Stitch Block socks from More Sensational Knitted Socks. I am using STR in Nodding Violet.
The Venezia cardigan is still on the needles. I have about 3/4 of the sleeves done. Then, seaming and finishing will be all that's left.

Now, a week to myself since hubby and step-son are camping. Then, a week away on vacation. I can hardly wait!
