And a pair of socks!



These socks were knit (in a week or so, very quick knit) out of Cherry Tree Hill Supersock in "Sugar Maple" from their "Flame Walker" pattern. It is hard to take pictures of one's own feet, so bear with the picture taking.

The socks are very lacy and very pretty, and the pattern was designed to be knit on two circular needles, so it was really fun to do. All in all, I would highly recommend both the yarn, which actually feels really nice on my feet, and the pattern.



I finished the SCARF!




This is a scarf knit from Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino. The color is a delightful purple color that makes me think of the sunset. Sappy, I know, but everyone seems to really love this color. The pattern was designed by the blogger at www.kristinwoodknits.blogspot.com. She is a spectacular designer, and everyone should run out and snap up all of the patterns she designs. I have only worn this today and have received MANY compliments. I take kind of not so good pictures so take my word for it that the scarf is way more gorgeous in person than these pictures represent.




Above are close-ups of the pattern so you can see how beautiful it is.
