(I tried a new camera, and it looked fine on the viewer, but when I transferred it over it was *weird*. Sorry about that.)

We’re at 96 memebers as of 1/24 @ 10am eastern, looks like I’ll be giving away that pattern next week!!

My FO – the Cleopatra Socks in Miss Babs Yummy. Pattern: In Slipping Color by Antje Gillingham.

(also forgot to mention – finished the lavender star baby blanket. Had 3 or 4 more rows on it, not much.)

First I thank Erin of the Anatomy of Knitting Podcast.

Off the needles – some fingerless mitts so I don’t freeze at work.  Yarn – Space Cadet Creations Lucina in Midnight Swim, pattern Fingerless Garter Mitts from One Skein by Leigh Radford.

On the needles – Cerisara by Bonne Marie Burns. Yarn Elsabeth Lavold Silky Wool.  I got tripped up on the right front.

Also, my vanilla socks in Miss Babs Yummy Sock Yarn Cleopatra colorway.

Spinning – back on the SPAKAL wagon.  Thank goodness.

Acquisitions from Lucca Dot Yarn, my Interstellar Space Alliance parcel came from Space Cadet Creations, and some necklace stuff for some crochet necklaces as seen in the crochet issue of Vogue Knitting from this summer (goods for that from firemountaingems.com)

What’s next! I am actually considering some Christmas crafting for the sister-in-laws, and want to make an infinity scarf for myself out of the Universal Yarns Starlight I liberated from Tuesday Morning a couple of months ago by heavily modifying the Lacey Lindy Cowl by Linda Walker.
