Click here (or the picture above) to go to the podium where my medal was awarded...

Here's a natural light photo of the of the finished Soybean Socks - YAY!

...and here's a little glimpse of the next project - my Easter Sweater for this year - some pretty sleeve detail...
...in a pretty soft yellow - not sure about the skirt yet - but I bought a pattern...

...even with the pretty sleeves - that's a lot of stockinette stitch...

...pattern from this book...

  4. Love the socks!

    I would go with the skirt - that style is very popular and VERY flattering. The slight flare from the hips swings beautifully without being revealing!! The length sits on the knee which is also flattering.

    The sweater is very cute, to do the stocking stitch you need something involving to watch on the television.

    Can't wait to see it finished.

  9. Your socks look so soft and lovely that I wish I could dip my toes in them! I can't wait to see that delicate sweater in yellow. Good luck with the rounds and rounds of stockinette. I am sure it will be worth it. :)
