FO and OF

Two milestones were attained this past week.

The first, a Finished Object:



Yes, that's correct. I did actually finish a project- within a fairly reasonable amount of time (well, okay, that is up for debate). This is a scarf that I promised to knit for my niece (said promise was made over Thanksgiving weekend 2005). I started it in mid-January, but got a little off-track due to two baby hats for a very cold little newborn in western NC and the knitting Olympics. This is the "Cabled" Indiecita Baby Alpaca Brush Scarf from Plymouth Yarn Design Studio. I used the called-for Baby Alpaca Brush (Plymouth Yarn Co.), in color 1620, which is a light baby blue. I used two skeins, resulting in a scarf that is 53 inches long- perfect for a 7 year old. This was quick and easy to make, and is the first cabled project I have, um, finished to date. YEAH!

The second, an indication of being Officially Finished:


Okay, so admittedly, I have already officially finished my MSLS . . . but, it never hurts to get the piece of paper to prove the two years of blood, sweat and tears.

And lastly, another photo of the Gem.



This, is Gemini last weekend in a state of fear and panic because I had a weekend visitor. He somehow managed to find himself in a pillowcase, underneath the pillow. Poor Gemini . . . yes, yes, I hear you . . . he needs a friend . . . another kitty may have to move to the front of the list to prevent anymore pillow hiding!
