Finished Objects!

Whahoo! A finished Clapotis knit in Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in "Lakeview." Using Shepherd Sock makes a sort of mini-Clapotis, which works fine for me.

I also finished an Irish Hiking Scarf using Elann's Peruvian wool in a sort of mossy green.

And I knit up a wee little neck scarf for fall out of one skein of a hand-dyed wool alpaca blend that I picked up at the little yarn shop in Whitevale. I loved the colours so much I had to have it. Much hugging of the skein ensued before it was knit, I loved it so much. Alas, the scarf is a bit scratchy, but that's not it's fault. I saw the design of this thin scarf in a store and liked the little i-cord flowers that were sewn a the bottom. Actually, I was amazed that I actually knew how to create those flowers: "Hey those are, like, i-cords, stictched into flowers! I know how to do that!"

Next, if I manage not completely pull my hair and give up in frustration is a pair of socks!

I'm not sure what's more impressive ... the lovely, finished items or the ingenious ways they're displayed.
