Here's what I have been working on:
Socks from KP Gloss, using yarn over cable pattern from Sensational Knitted socks, done toe-up
Hat: Shedir from Knitty. This took me 4 tried and much ripping before I got it. Done in Rowan Calmer, the recommended yarn. I hate the yarn! It is splitty and for me, it squeaks when I am knitting tightly. Most people seem to love it. I think it would probably be lovely on a larger needle than this hat asked for.
Bag: Felted entrelac bag for the March KAL, finally finished on April 20! I bought the pattern on line, thought it would be too small, and doubled it. It turned out bigger than I wanted, it's about the size of a dept. store shopping bag. It looks fine hanging, but collapses open if you put it down. I am going to look for a magnetic closure to stick in the middle. It sure holds a lot! You could tote an afghan in there!
Whew! Now if I could just finish a blasted sweater, I would get to buy some more yarn!
