the thing itself and not the myth

Have I really not posted knitting pictures here since March? That is flat-out ridiculous.

Since then I’ve finished three (nearly four) sweaters that I haven’t managed to photograph, but there is still plenty of knitting spam after the jump.

In reverse order, click through to Flickr to embiggen:

Lace Ribbon Scarf, in Happy Feet. This pattern was made for semi-solids.

Hat & booties for a work baby shower. The hat is a berry hat pattern, so I added the ribbing to make it pumpkin-esque. The three booties are in case she loses one.

&

Nautical & Fascinating socks. KnitPicks Felici in the Schooner colorway, pattern was Seaside Socks. The k2tog over purl rows was nearly the death of me, but I lovelovelove this yarn. I wish I liked the other colorways.

Waving Lace socks (from best of Interweave) in Panda Wool. Loved the yarn, loved the pattern.

A second pair of toe-up Nutkins, this time in Cherry Tree Hill.

My Olympics project, which was totally insane, and which you probably all are sick of hearing about. Juno Regina stole in Malabrigo lace, knitted entirely during the summer Olympics. Pinned out for blocking, and then a close-up in the sun.

A closeup of the star stitch headband, in Fly Designs sock:

Spirogyra mitts (sheesh, almost time to wear them again)

And lots more socks.

…so apparently, if anyone is desperate to buy me a present, sock blockers would be useful.

Finally, I also crochet.

Well. That was ridiculous, and also took way less time than I expected, so I have no excuse. Maybe someday you can see the sweaters! It’s probably faster if you just visit me, though.
