Finished Objects, Finally!

It has been a very busy couple of months! My dad fell down a week after Thanksgiving and broke his pelvis in two places. So, we've been busy with the hospital and rehab up until a couple weeks ago. Since I've been home again, though, there has been some serious knitting happening here.

FINALLY!! A pair of complete Monkey Socks! Yippee! I PROMISE - this is the last time you're gonna have to see this yarn on my blog! Although I love it, seems it took about four false starts and trips to the frog pond before settling on the monkey socks.

And:

Ta - Daaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Lady Eleanor is done being knitted - now just needs to be blocked and fringed and will be considered "complete." I truly enjoyed knitting this shawl, once my mind got wrapped around it! Is a totally different way of knitting, but each color change was an adventure in artistry. The way the colors come together is just beautiful. And it still looks great draped over the back of my sofa! hehe

Now, not sure what I'll be knitting, although am pretty sure there are about 25 pairs of socks in my future. There is at least that much sock yarn in my stash, so it's time to start knitting on that, am sure!

Since there's nothing on my needles right now, it is doubtful things will stay that way for very long!

Love Lady E.
