Socks for September-SAM 4 KAL. These are knit of Cherry Tree Hill supersock in Cabin Fever colorway. Nice yarn to work with. My new fave! I used knit Picks Options size 1 and 2. I changed to a round toe and on the picot top, I did a provisional cast on and then folded and knitted it in. It's a little extra work, but worth it.

KNIT OUT in the PARK
Last Saturday was our local Guild's Knit Out event: KNIT OUT in the Park. Held at a local park near downtown San Luis Obispo. It was a great success! After a little rain on Friday, we decided God must be a knitter--NICE WEATHER! I'll post pics soon.
Another UFO is almost complete--today or tomorrow. That feels good! Also, I frogged another project. I made a shawl last year that ended up with a couple of mistakes. One fixable and one not. I liked the shawl so I decided to frog and re-knit paying closer attention to what I'm doing next time. It'll go into the "designated stash" for resurrection possibly in January '08.

Quilt Challenge
Some pics of the 30+ quilts that were entered in the quilt challenge. Last Saturday was a beautiful, sunny day--perfect for an outdoor event.
There must have been 100 or so people there to see all the beautiful quilt entries. We had a fantastic lunch.
I didn't win, but that's OK. ALL the quilts were so, so beautiful!
...and here's a pic of me (in the hat) with Susan Branch!

It's Time
Haven't posted in awhile; hmmm. Today I am "store sitting" for a friend who owns a YARN SHOP! It's called Yarnology and is located in the Village in Arroyo Grande, CA. Heather, the owner, also has a new website and takes orders online right HERE!
It is really, really fun to be in a roomful of yarn for seven hours!
Last week I turned in the challenge quilt. It looks great. I don't know how many entries there are--will find out Saturday when the winners are announced. I'll post pics next week. This quilt has become the "inspiration" for decorating my bedroom. I planned to use it as a table cover but, it just may go on the wall over the bed.
Sock swap socks are on the home stretch. I've collected some nice goodies to go with them.
