Lots of Knittin'

Hello to all my knitty friends and family! SPRING HAS SPRUNG! It was in the 70's yesterday! I felt foolish walking down main street with a wool sweater and scarf. Silly me. I haven't found our bin of summer clothes yet.

I have much to tell in regards to knitting. I, like many of you, have started way too many projects on my needles. Here are the current projects and their progress.

Beware: AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST IS A WOOLGIRL SOCK CLUB SPOILER.


The first item is the Clapotis. I had to buy more yarn for this pattern since I own several hanks but one of each. The pattern asks for worsted weight, I believe. But that sounded so heavy so I checked Ravelry and found hundreds made with sock weight yarn.I'm using Araucania (Ranco Multy Color 302). I only purchased two skeins, so I hope it's enough. Each skein has 376 yards. AND it's only $16.50!!!
AND a huge thanks to Lori who gave me the sweetest stitch markers last summer. The ladybugs and the little red circle stones are all from her. (and they are my favorites!) They look so pretty next to my blue Clapotis!

My pretty little elfish socks:
dkKnits sock yarn and the pattern is Rivendell.

And now for the new stash! (SPOILER)
