Odds and Ends

I finished these fun socks made with a couple leftovers from other socks. These were made of leftover semi-solid black from the middle of a ball of Knit Picks Duos, colorway Rocket Ship. I didn't know if I had enough for the sock but it worked out great with two row stripes of each color. The other is a speckle leftover from an Into the Whirled, colorway Captain Tight Pants. These came out so much better than I could have hoped and I love them.
I worked on my Ard-ri shawl some more. The fabric for this one is divine.
I made more progress on my latest Dotted Rays shawl. I think this is the last wedge of the shawl. I really like these colors together.
I splurged and bought myself the Florid Bloom template set and Double Wedding Ring Quilts book from Victoria Findlay Wolfe. I'm still reading through the book. EDIT: acrylic templates are not included with the book. You do get paper templates in the book but the acrylic templates are an extra purchase.
I finished the Scrappy Quarter Cabin quilt top and moved it to the long arm (more on that later in the week) so now the design wall is empty. I need to find that next great project, or pull one out that I set aside. So many options! What are you working on?

  1. Wow an empty design wall. Congrats on your progress. The wedding ring quilt book looks interesting. How wonderful that it comes with templates.
