Its been a long time...

I haven't posted anything in forever. Between trying to find a template I'm happy with, my camera not cooperating with my computer, and Blogger eating posts... Time has slipped by rather quickly here.
I've finished the baby sweater, and one of the cabled baby socks in the Interweave Knits summer edition. And I've done one bootie to match the sweater. I'm going to have to do the other tomorrow so I can get it blocked in time to give to the mommy before she goes in on the 26th. I'm not worried about the cabled sock, because it will be fall before the baby will fit them, so I'll get another set done too, and gift it later.
Clapotis is in time out right now. I started the decrease rows two reps too soon... And I'm dreading the unknitting for 8 rows. So its in limbo while I steel up for it. I've started the celebrity shawl from Stich Divas to fill its place right now. I'm really enjoying it so far. Its in an eggplant color of TLC Amore. I think I might make another with the cherry red color next time it goes on sale. It's going to get a lot of wear.
I've also neglected to post about my Secret Pals, I was
Heatherly's secret pal, and Jackie was mine. And my lovely Bead It! pal, Danielle. I got both packages in the last week or so, and was happily surprised by them. Not only did I get stitch markers, (gorgeous ones at that!) but I got some super soft roving. I'd just been talking with Elabeth about spinning, and how id put off playing with my drop spindle til I could get some roving to dye, and then next day, there's some perfectly dyed roving begging to be played with! My secret pal box was awesome too. Yarn for two pairs of socks, a pair of bryspun needles, "Knitting on the Road" a some cute little goodies too! I feel very spoiled this week.
And I will get pictures up soon. I just have to find the day time to call the company and. Apparently my camera is unfixable online, and they have to walk me through what to do. Ugh.
