Oh, and this post wouldn't be a post without an update in the knitting department. I've finished my Quidditch Gryffindor wristies for the HP group. I made them for T & N..... who knows, maybe they can wear them to see the HP movie that's coming this month. Or maybe not, because it's really hot here!
I used Red Heart Yarn and size 8 DPNs. It was my first time using DPNs.... they were kinda awkward to use. I think I prefer circulars or maybe I just need more practice. They turned out OK, although one came out bigger than the other. I have no clue why! =P You see the Gryffindor colours..... YAY. That is the only FO I have to show.
On the needles, I'm knitting Hedera socks from Cookie A. I 'm using Panda Soy in Cocoa Mint and size 1 circs. The yarn is a bit splitty but it's SOOO SOFT, I love it! I don't spend enough time knitting though, so it's coming along very slowly. The lacy pattern is easy enough, but takes a bit of concentration. I'm learning alot from the pattern too. The PSSO and YO are new to me. I like the way it's looking so far..... very lacy looking! There were a few mishaps but nothing major.
