New FO!

Nothing in the mug today!It is tooooo hotttttt for warm drinks!

I cast-off the shawl for my mom's Christmas gift recently. It was a KAL for two groups on Ravelry. This is the Larch Scarflet pattern, and it was an easy and quick knit :)

New Hobby!!

What's In My Cup: I can't believe it myself, but I'm empty! It's almost bedtime, so I am done for today ;)

Misc




In my cup this beautiful day: French Broad Blend from Blue Smoke Coffee in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. Compliments of a lovely swap partner!

So, here's what I've been up to:

I sewed a top/shorts set for a friend's soon-to-be-born baby. Simplicity 2625 (I've sewn this one before)


I got tied up by a little boy who likes to think he's Rosco P. Coltrane (and with my own yarn!)


And, I got some very exciting mail:
Stitch markers from Melissa


And, a whole slew of DPNs (and a pretty needle roll to contain them in), and some more pretty stitch markers from Tonja
