Principal Slippers. Made from Cascade 220 Quatro and a Solid. Messed up and used one strand of each for the 2nd slipper bottom. Thought I would manage the yarn better by using up more of the color I had the most of. But planned to change to two strands of Quatro for the bind off rows of the bumper. Well, I forgot, so the bottoms are two different looks. Not interested in fixing the mistake since they will be washed and worn on someone's feet. Plus, my arm hurts from the knitting, typing and dog walking. Trying to teach the dog to heel. Not succeeding! Started May 2nd, finished May 4th.
Baby Surprise Jacket. Almost finished. Just need to do a crochet edging with button loops and seam. Then add some length to the sleeves. I will sew the ends as a steek instead of weaving them in. I learned my lesson with Harvard Square! Yes, these are the same exact colors as HS. I am sick of them now, and I probably have enough, minus the navy which is gone, to do a large child's vest or a small sweater. But not any time soon! Finished May 7th.
Crocus Pocus. Smooshy Lipstick Lava. Started this May 11th, finished June 29th. I love the finished piece but I hated the pattern. It just didn't click with me.
