Time for more projects
Well, the camera is AWOL, so no updates on current projects. I made a practice sock, from the knitty.com web site instructions, and it actually turned out like the picture:

It's now a dog toy, courtesy of Kiffy, not unexpected since we tried the baby sock on her front paw.
Next FO is the cotton/linen scarf. Since last time, I discovered that it was too wide, and thus too short. The new version is one repeat of the rib, instead of two, and is just long enough. It's currently in the drying stage of blocking. Note to self: insert picture here.
WIP - One towel complete on the loom, and the second is 1/3 complete.
On to new projects - a real pair of socks, using Sockotta in a white/purple/dark green/dark pink colorway. Casting on in just minutes.
Big shopping spree at WEBS:
They haven't yet sold out of the Jordana Paige knitter's purse, so I ordered that in red:

And this pattern and the yarn for it:

Last but not least, some 8/2 Tencel in black for the loom. It's time to move on from the cotton dishtowels. I don't know what to use as weft, but it's the first step.
