it's that faux-cable again, with sort of a lace rib between repeats. this is a swatch for a sweater that i'm still working out - i've cast on, but not decided how i want to do the shoulders.

Crocheted shawl from very fine mohair yarn

In progress commission

Just needs some stitching over top...

Since the head tilts back (intentionally) , and there'll be wings in the back, I was worried about it over balancing. A couple of pennies in the base should prevent that.

Floor completely stained

The first cabinet order (downstairs bathroom) arrives -- exciting milestone for Vanessa

Countertops installed, tile and sinks in progress

Fall sweater! Obviously needs to be a little longer. :P

The trees are gone - it took most of the day to get the stumps out. Also starting to take down the last fence.

Quilting! Free-motion quilting done on my White FR treadle. You can't drop the feed dogs on it, but that wasn't a problem in this case, as the stitch length is verrry adjustable, and I find the treadle allows me a lot of control over the speed. I hadn't FM quilted (or quilted, period) before this project.

Pattern: One Skein - A Stole! (Also available as a free Ravelry download.)

 

Needles: US 9 (5.5mm) Knit Picks nickel-plated Options circular needle.

 

Yarn: Noro Kureyon Sock, color #221.
