It’s a day late, but another random blue square.
Or a Saturday Sky. I try to include some treeline to break up the blue!
Spring blossoms to go along with the beautiful weather, anyone?
She’s growing nicely, thankyouverymuch. I’ve finished two repeats, and she’s behaving beautifully! I wish I could knit her all day every day. Here she is stretched out a little to show the lace a bit better.
Unfortunately, I can’t knit her all day every day. Family, housework, rabbit, sleeping, eating, all kinds of unreasonable demands on my time prevent me from doing so.
So occasionallyI do a row or two on something a little less time consuming.
I finished a Fleece Artist sock
I love this sock yarn. Absolutely love it. It’s a bit thicker than most sock yarns, and it’s springy, soft and warm, and cushy. Sock heaven.
But instead of working on sock number two, my fickle heart strayed.
And I cast on a scarf.
It’s in SWTC’s Karaoke in “Dipity”. The yarn is nice and soft to touch, but I’m not sure about the single ply yet. It’s thick and thin, which really seems to be achieved by overspinning the yarn in some places, and underspinning it in others.
But I love the way the colour repeats are knitting up in this pattern so far.
The pattern is the Grape Hyacinth Lace Scarf from pieknits.
I first saw it over on Gill’s blog, and fell in love with it instantly. Gill knit it up in Silk Garden, and it looks gorgeous.
The smallest scarf in the pattern can be made with just one ball of Silk Garden. (Or Karaoke).
We’ll see how big it finishes up.
Twinkie is not impressed.
What a beautiful blue sky. Its really hazy at my side.. Maybe there are forest-fires in Indonesia again.. There isn’t a single patch of blue on this tiny piece of sky here..
Twinky is SO adorable in that picture. =)
AWWWWW!!!! That’s such a sweet face!
Love the lace,you are so clever to keep up with the pattern,I have to concentrate a lot!
Twinkie is gorgeous as usual……
Lovely blue sky!!! And, the bunny…too funny! Your socks and scarf are great too!
Very nice sock, it looks very squishy!! I love the scarf too and the lace, it is purple!! I am being invaded by purple!! Is not Twinkie the cutest thing ever??? That gorgeous face!!!
The Spring Blossoms design is so, so pretty! Especially in that purple. This one will be a show stopper for sure.
Great Twinkie photo, too! Made me LOL!
Love the knitting – that shawl is going to be gorgeous – and Twinkie has got the cutest face I’ve ever seen! Your package is winging it’s way from my part of the world to yours…..
Love the lace Donna – and the scarf is looking good. As for Twinkie….. too cute!
Spring Blossoms is looking great. That one is on my to-do list. Someday.
Love the Twinkie face 🙂
Love that chubby bunny face! Does Twinkie like kisses? Now I want a bunny. (just get a grip, Janet)
Gotta love that bunny face! I think now that we’re heading into nicer weather I might just start participating in some Saturday Sky action! Our Melbourne skies have been a little up and down of late (I know, hard to believe right?)
You know, I read your blog regularly. But when I’m behind on Bloglines (most of the time), I don’t leave a lot of comments. This morning, I was racing through yours: cool purple thing, gorgeous sock, lovely graduated yarn. I was about to click away to skim my next blog, when you threw in the bunny picture. Gah! Too funny.
I’m a sucker for that little face.
Great knitting too, though.
such a sweet bunny! Lvoe the fleece artist sock
Love the socks! What pattern did you use?
I think that may be the best Twinkie photo ever! She’s sooo cute!
Spring blossoms is just lovely! I don’t know where you get the energy, though beautiful it makes my brain hurt just looking at it, lol.
Twinkie gets a distinction in cuteness!!! Shhhhhhh don’t tell the cats:)
Glad you managed to choose some sock yarn, that yarn definately deserved to be knitted.
And that lace……….. soooooooo pretty.
That is the best picture of Twinkie ever. Too cute! 🙂 LOL
The shawl is going to be gorgeous. Great socks. 🙂
Gaad…I just LOVE that rabbit! The lace is pretty nice too!
Please stop putting such great projects on your blog!! You are a seriously bad (good) influence on me. Of course, the good thing about you inspiring me to knit so many different things is that I can tell DH….’Donna made me do it!’
Twinkie is gorgeous….we lost Snugs the other day, he died in the middle of the night while he was eating. Great way to go though.
Twinkie is too adorable. Is she sleeping there? Or just lying content? Or squinting at the camera?
I love all the colorful projects you’ve got going there. And the lace shawl is looking so pretty!
I love how your shawl is turning out. So pretty! What pattern are you doing the sock out of? The colors are just lovely!
