On the Needles 6/29/12

What’s on my needles you ask??? Well there’s a lot on my needles right now

I’m perpetually working on my Sock Yarn Blanket…So far I have 518 squares finished.  So I am officially past the halfway point – this will be 1006 squares when it’s finished

I’m also working on Skew Socks after taking a class at Cloverhill Yarn Shop in Catonsville, MD.  The class has gotten me to the heel of the first sock and I am very happy with the result so far.

I also cast on Camp Loopy project 2 yesterday.  I’m doing the Stripe Study Shawl using Dragonfly Fibers Djinni Sock yarn in the Water Sprite & Poseidon colorways.  The challenge this round is to knit something using at least 800 yards of yarn as well as at least 1 color from your nation’s flag (There’s a little blue in the yarns).

And here’s Little Loopy hanging out with the yarns in my nifty Loopy Ewe Camp Loopy Project Bag.

I also managed to turn on my sewing machine this past week and whipped up a lunch tote for one of my employees that left our company to pursue another opportunity.  She loves the bag!  YAY!
