I have been really lucky lately and Crystal Palace Yarns has been VERY GENEROUS... I won 2 skeins of the CPY Superwash in Mediterrean Blue by participating in the 50/50 KAL - then I won 2 skeins of CPY Mini Mochi #105 from participating in the Carefree KAL for the first 6 months - then I won 2 more skeins of CPY Superwash in Basil Curry for the Carefree Holiday KAL. They are all beautiful!!!

December 2010


Wow - I finally finished these socks! I think they turned out great - I knew what they were going to look like tho' because someone else had used this pattern and yarn in Ravelry. Thank goodness for Ravelry - love it!!! Started these socks back in Feb to learn how to do entrelac for our retreat and then stopped.... so good to finally finish them. The yarn is Trekking (color 108) and the pattern is Annetrelac by Sandy Beadle. I used size 1 dpn. Lots of yardage in these socks with this tiny, tiny bit left when I was done - whew nervous time!

November 2010 Projects



This month I made socks using Shibui yarn (which I loved) and the Margarita Summer pattern by Denise Henderly from the 50 Socks 50 States CD. I used size 2 dpn and added some CPY yarn to the heels and toes. I also made another scarf for the church with CPY to give to a group at Christmas.

October 2010 Projects








In October I finished a shawl for my friend Joann, a scarf for the church, baby socks for Cheryl's new baby and a hat for Haley.
