I first would like to apologise for my inability to spell cappuccino in my last post… I was doing a disservice to a fabulous drink.<\/p>\n

Cappuccino Socks<\/i>
The heel was turned without great difficulty, and there was much jubilation.<\/p>\n

The sock progressed along nicely, and was actually completed a few hours after these pictures were taken to even more jubilation. Now to get to work on the second, which should be too hard. This was a nice, simple sock to knit, and it went pretty fast.<\/p>\n

Felted Kitty Bed<\/i><\/p>\n

The felted kitty bed that was finished last week was thrown into my parent’s washing machine and felted on Sunday. (I do my felting at their place because it’s a top loader, so I can check progress, and I don’t have to pay for it.)<\/p>\n

As soon as I find a box for it, it will be winging its way to Florida for my sister’s new kitty.<\/p>\n

Reader’s Comments<\/i>
Julie<\/a> asked where I got the pattern for the scarf.<\/p>\n

I got the lace pattern from The Dishcloth Boutique<\/a>… it’s the Garter Stitch Lace facecloth on page 1 of the knitting patterns. I modified it slightly, doing only 4 rows of garter between the lace segments. This facecloth was the first lace pattern I knitted, so I have an unusual fondness for it… of course, being easy to remember while looking complicated is a bonus.<\/p>\n

Update<\/i>
I finally got around to not only snapping a picture of this, but uploading it so I could share. This is what they pulled out of my tire 2 weeks ago. No wonder it went flat in a couple of minutes, eh?<\/p>\n
