Oh my Gosh!! It's Lime and Violet!!

I knitted this afghan for my mom for her birthday on August 5th. I finished this up in May, and put it away. I took it out today to wrap up, and I just realized that the colors are "Lime and Violet". I have become a fan of the Lime and Violet podcasts after discovering them last month. You can hear them at the link on the side of this page. The pattern is from Edith Eig, but I modified the pattern to make a 40" x 60" afghan. It is done in a Fan and Feather stich pattern.

World War II Sock #2

Started cuff of sock #2 of my World War II sock pattern. Soon I'll have these finished.

Weasley Sweater Progress

Making progress on my Gryffindor colors Weasley Sweater. Finished the back, and most of the front. Currently working on the neck area. The E stands for Elijah. I decided to swap house colors for my nephews, as a gold "A" on a scarlet sweater would look too much like the Alvin and the Chipmunks sweater.

Finished. Now let the reading begin.

Finally finished my Gryffindor Bookmark. Now I can begin reading Book 7. Up till midnight last night and messed up. Had to frog back a few times because of mistakes but I finally finished up this morning. It looks like the one given in the pattern. Read first 1-1/2 chapters so far!

World War II Sock Progress

I completed Sock #1 from my World War II Sock Pattern last night. I'm happy to say that it fits perfectly, like a glove (or should I say sock).

9 Foot Surfboard - Progress

I started my 9 foot longboard surfboard today. I did the main spar which consists of 3 - 9 foot lengths of 1/8" Luan plywood glued together. The plywood comes in 8 x 4 sheets, so I had to cut and glue an extra foot piece interspersed between the 8 foot sections. Once the glue dries, and can shape. Then I can start cutting the frame pieces.
