On to the Next Round!

Braidalot
The next pattern for Sock Madness came out late Saturday night. I knit like crazy for the next 5 days and was able to move on to the next round. I was 26 of 30 on my team. The team is full now. There is still a week to go until the next round, only 2 teams are full today.

But since I knit on these socks, I did not get my binding tacked down like I had hoped to do this week. Now I am free to work on the binding, so maybe next week's post will have a finished quilt!

Is it really April? I thought March would never end!

Finished!
 I finished my first round socks in time and have moved on to the second round! Wahoo! They have not posted the next pattern yet, so I am working on a few things. I will have a finished quilt for next week's post. And I started a hat for Sweetie.

Nottingham
I bought this lovely yarn at an Alpaca shop in Sisters last summer. Then lost the bag! LOL! It showed up a couple of weeks ago. I chose a cabled pattern called Nottingham. So far it is easy, but I am ready to start the cables, so need to pay attention.

My little Eddy

And just because here is a cute picture of my dog. He hurt his leg recently and so we have been cutting way back on walks. He gets too excited and then jumps around and re-injures his leg. He is ten years old and getting a lot of grey on his brown head. Sweetest guy ever!
