Whats on my needles.

I finished my Multnomah Shawl last week, I need to block it and get some good pictures of it. I was a little short on yarn and didn't finish the last two repeats. So its a little small... I wish I would have used larger needles. So I think this shawl will mostly be my daughters, it fits her perfectly. Needless to say she's pretty happy that it turned out small!

I cast on yesterday on Komet socks by Stephanie van der Linden. I'm using my Yarn Love yarn colorway Warmth. I'm loving how the pattern is knitting up! Its going really quickly. The yarn splits a bit, but that seems to me what happens when they yarn has a bit of bamboo in it. Its not unbearable, and definitely worth having such beautiful soft yarn! With out further ado here is a picture of the first little bit that I have done!

My goal is to get these socks done by the end of the weekend. I'm knitting them for my first Sockdown on Ravelry's Sock Knitters Anonymous. But I want to get them finished quickly because I would like to get started on another pair of socks next week sometime. I went overboard a few days ago and bought a ton of yarn from Sunshine Yarns 6 skeins in their Twilight colorway.... shhh.... don't tell my hubby!! ;) I also bought one of the kits that they have for the Dipped Infinity Scarf. I can't wait to get started on that one either but it will probably be on the back burner for a little while. Anyway, I want to do do their Twilight Sunshine Along.... it has to be knit before the 15th of June using one of the Twilight colorway skeins. I'll be ready to knit as soon as my yarn shows up!

Okay gotta run I have a little one here that is demanding my attention so he can nurse.....
