busy work

like i've been saying, i'm not getting much accomplished these days. i don't have a good excuse.

so here's what i've been up to. (too many irons in the fire, i think).

my first sewing attempt:

Simplicity New Look 6574

Colleen Stocking

more socks, of course:

i'm determined to finish the scarf that never ends. it's been languishing in the wip pile far too long.

you guessed it, it's this

i'd be remiss if i didn't acknowledge the lovely and amazing gift that m's sister and her husband sent me for christmas. along with a subscription to the fabulous Craft Magazine and toys for shorty, they sent me this beautiful yarn:

1427 Iguana


which is well on its way to becoming Ivy.


these photos are from last week. i'm nearly done the back. i love the flecks of yellow and the dark olive.


thanks a+g.

whew. now that i've exposed my wip pile, i must admit that i'm also working on a poncho by request for my mom and a plain ol' pair of socks for me. i think it's time to focus on a few projects and maybe get some things finished.
