Fiber Optics:

  • Jade 
  • Walking Project: Working on Houdini socks out of Socks that Rock lightweight. She only gets 30 minutes to work on these every day, so it's taken a while to finish.
  • Easy fingerless mittens for her eldest nephew using Colinette Hullaboo aran weight yarn. It's going really fast!
  • AT the Pajama Jammie Jam, Jade picked up a crazy color Manos del Uruaguay skein of yarn...and had to cast on immediately. Colors are all highlighter neon, so she's pairing it with a skein of Cascade silk heritage (very nice) to tone down the colors.
  • Swapetition with the Savvy Girls! Check out what Jade got in her package.
  • Sandy.
    • Gift socks for a friend.
    • She's making progress on the Union Jack sweater, but "Intarsia b hard, yo."

Make it Sew 

Jade made a book bag for my nephew out of Star Wars fabric that she found at JoAnns in the remnant bin for 75% off.
