WIP Wednesday

   This week, I have 3 active WIPs. All which have deadlines... *sigh* First, most active thing is the Striped Baby Sweater. I got the stripes to match perfect, which is what I was hoping for. This is on size 6 needles in Red Heart Super Saver "Light Raspberry" and "Soft White" This should be done soon, and since I'm a math wiz, I'm tech editing all of this myself. The pattern will need testers when it's done. Project Page

Making Monday

   I haven't done a Making Monday post in a while, all because I usually do my baking on the weekends. I will say, yesterday, Steven and I made Soft Pretzels, which turned out amazing! The hardest part was the wait... they had to rise for a whole 1 hour then cook for 10 min. Can you guess which part was the worst? Yea, you got it, the last 10 minutes. But they were great!

   Tonight, after my mom made delicious chicken spaghetti, I made a 3-layer strawberry shortcake.

   I, personally, don't like the strawberry sauce, so that little back section that you can see through the hole, that's my "section." Everyone else loves the whole shabang so the rest has sauce on it. This cake was so beautiful before I cut into it, then it went flop. But it was moy delicioso! 

   I hope you enjoyed my little Making Monday post, maybe I'll get to write one more often! *^.^*

Vote for the Sept/Oct KAL/CAL!

   Hey y'all! I am going to have both a knit and crochet garment-a-long, so I need help choosing which one for each craft! Head on over to the Podcast Ravelry group and vote! Here's a peek at the polls! We won't be starting the KAL/CAL until probably September 9, so you have about a week and a half to vote! Feel free to cast a vote for either, or both, crafts. As you can see, I already cast my vote!

WIP Wednesday

   This week, I am focused on getting the Barter Socks finished so I can work on the Elf Ears Ear-warmers shop order I got started. I finished the 1st sock last night. They are knit on size 3 dpn in White 100% Romney wool, size men's 10.5/11, 48 st around, with a fleegle heel. It has a 4" 1x1 rib cuff, but I plan to take out the bind off and make the leg longer.

FO Friday

   This week, I have 2 FOs, which is pretty good for me! On Monday, I finished the Crocodile stitch baby booties, in a rainbow gradient,  on a size D hook.

Then last night, I finished the gray infinity scarf. It was knit in Caron Simply Soft "Gray Heathers" on size 10 needles. It has such a great drape and it is sooooo soft! :)
