Finally, I'm back

I know, I know... It's been forever since I made a blog entry. I moved last month and our internet wasn't up and working until yesterday. So I have an excuse- although not a good one. And of course I've still been knitting like crazy. I finished this baby bolero in just a few days. It's for some friends who just had a baby girl, I still haven't seen them yet because they live an hour away, but that's why I made it huge. The yarn is Cascade Sierra, a cotton and wool blend and the pattern is from Knitting Pure and Simple-which means I didn't have to sew it! These socks were fun to make too. The green one is for my dad's xmas present-so hopefully I will actually finish the second one-or least start it. It is made out of Silky Sock and Gems Pearl, the silk sock yarn is so nice to knit with. The red sock is made out of Dream in Color Smooshy. The color is chinatown apple and the pattern is from DIC, called sleepwalker socks. These ones are for me so you probably won't see the other one until next year. Well I will write more than once every two months-I hope!
