Floral Cardigan - in progress

I can't wait to finish this so I can wear it! The pattern is from the Winter 1009/10 issue of Vogue Knitting and is by Josh Bennett. Since I have allergies to regular wool, I ordered some Merino from KnitPicks and I've chosen colors that I would wear more often. I've chosen to do the top portion as Fair Isle, but I am using intarsia for the centers of the flowers.

The Necklace of Gaudiness (+2)

Brenda's mom started this and I decorated it. It was for Scott Thomas's character Roger (the very gay director) in SJTC's "The Producers". I tried to make it Scott-sized and as glittery and gaudy as possible. The "plus two" is a D&D reference - referring to extra dice rolls needed as a saving throw to ward against being stunned by the incredible gaudiness of it.

The Red Socks

I finally managed to finish these. They went up pretty quickly, even though I haven't had too much time to work on them. I modified the pattern slightly to fit my skinny feet...

ON-hold Socks: Take 2

I'd brought my partially finished socks in to show Trish at Cricket Cove and she offered to buy the yarn from me, and I would pick up a replacement skein. I found a great red Merino 2/6 by Fleece Artist and re-started the socks. I haven't gotten much done though, due to large amounts of overtime, but I am back to regular work hours again so hopefully these won't take too long to finish...
