Yeah, well, he's usually not like that and doesn't bother me much while I'm knitting. For some reason this particular Thursday he was VERY MUCH into txting me. *giggle* He's probably gonna kill me for saying something. Then again, I don't think he reads this blog much. If he does...*smooches sweetie*
It was also a night of finished objects for me...and
the night to show off my dish cloth exchange items. So, I'm on this message board and we've done a scarf exchange (see my archive around V-day time), now this dish cloth exchange, and we're going to do a socks exchange in September! So the scarf idea was mine, and it just sort of took off!! *beaming* So, here are the dish clothes that I received (on the rig
ht). They are GORGEOUS and I can't wait to use them. The 
mottled one is actually a potholder. On the left are the ones that I sent to my exchangee (supah supah late because I'm a supah slackah). Actually, my life was so messed up these last two months I just couldn't get my head on straight! The top pictures is some 
Williamsburg soaps I sent with mine. Felt a "special" gift was warranted being as I was so late. The second one is a yellow fan shaped lace on, the third and fourth are of the same cloth. I knitted it reversible, meaning I used both hands to knit in continental and throw at the same time. It was fun! It's a drunk looking star. What it is with me and the 
drunken knitting? The fifth one is a standard basketweave pattern. I felt something functional was needed. The sixth one is some other lacy pattern. I can't remember at this point. They all kind of look the same to me. It was fun to make, though. This last one is another lacey one. I used all dish cloth patterns from www.knittingpatterncentral.com, well, except the reversible knit one. 
That's from www.diynet.com.
Okay, so I FINALLY finished that lace, toddler sweater from www.knitty.com. I feel like I've been working on that thing FOREVAH! It is the cutest little sweater I've ever made and will TOTALLY make one for my friend if she's having a girl. Of course, at this point, I have no idea if my friend is coming to see me or not. I hope so so I can give him the sweater, but it's a long story as to why I hope he doesn't, too. Sometimes
platonic is hard. Finally, I brought in the cammo, baby hoodie I made for my friend who has three, count them, THREE boys and they're all big into hunting and outdoors stuff. so I told her I'd make her a cammo
baby sweater. Isn't it just the cutest? I used the Bernat cammo yarn. Not the itchy Red Heart stuff. ICK!AND, last but not least, is a picture of me working on my top down raglan sweater. I need to put the stiches on waste yarn so I can see how it's fitting. Seriously, I need a cape...a bedazzled cape wiht SUPAH SLACKAH on it.
