its DONE!

my adamas shawl is DONE!! woohoo!


I started on my 1st pair of Jaywalkers (Sock), which I was working on at dorney park~ while I was waiting for my cousins to return from their rides~ and Can it be? I wasn't on the rides myself?! *Shock*Shock* After spending the morning at the waterpark (I hate waterparks) I had a massive headache~ So I only rode my favorite dorney coasters- Talon and Steel Force~

I'm using my Lantern Moon, Sock Sox- I love these needles!! so Smooth and feel nice in my hands~ I'm just scared I'm gonna break them!! they are quite bendy~
The yarn is... Lorna's Laces Sock- in the Edgewater Colorway~ I'm totally in love with this yarn and the color!! its sooo pretty~
Last night I had a huge battle with this yarn~ I had it wound into a ball at the store I bought it at (a few MONTHS ago)... and it was kinda loose and falling apart but still~ i thought it would be ok~ It ended up getting horribly horribly knotted~ I was up to the wee hours of the night unknotting~ and ended up cutting it (*Heartbroken*)
Still I love this yarn!

lately~

heres what I've been up to lately... besides working that is~

a Basic Sock using Lang Jawoll Cotton Jaquard... on size 2 needles
This picture makes them look quite small.. which I guess they are~ they are a size 6 womans~

Adamas shawl using JoJoLand Harmony (to skeins at once) on Size 5 Addi Lace Turbo's-This is my 1st real lace project... if it turns out ok~ its supposed to be a gift... (i'm pretty sure she doesn't read my blog)...but I'm having major issues with it... I keep losing stitches!!
Also I have a new favorite place to buy yarn (see the little link on the side)... and I'm like obsessed with Malabrigo... I need to finish this shawl and the socks for the boys (jonathan and andrew) so I can start on something with my mmmmmmal~

a little late~ but at least its up~!
