Secret Pal 13

I have signed up for secret Pal 13, I'm kinda excited this will be my first secret pal experience...

I've also been plugging away at the men's (not so aran) aran sweater, W indicated that he didn't want all the cabling and pattern through the body of the sweater so it's just boring stockinette.... I did make it in the round and have separated the back to knit the arm holes, it just seems slow going.

There is no progress on the Blue Juliet as I've been spending all my time on W's sweater, the same goes for the Apres' Surf Hoodie and Sarah's Lace Blouse....

I have a tendency to not blog if I don't have pictures to share, sorry for that - hehe, I might put a progress shot up on the W's sweater and the blue juilet becuase I do have pics. Look for it soon :)

Alexis' Baby Blanket

When Alexis was a baby I made this for her. She still uses it in the car when they go places.....

I can't remember the brand of yarn - however it's cotton.... lace edging in blue

Blue Juliet

My sister really loved my red Juliet - so I've decided to make her a blue one.... I picked up some Soy Wool from Patons SWS Solids knitting on size US 6 kneedles swatched and started - pictures to come.....

I've also swatched for the Apres Surf Hoodie using two strands of the Jaggerspun 2/18 Zephyr wool - silk in sable. I can't wait to make this.... Pattern is in Interweave knits Summer 2008 issue.
