So exhausted from XMAS...and it hasn't started yet.




I'll just post a few photos of my completed afghan, and see if I can link them up with ravelry. This was about nine months of work, done simultaneously with other projects.




This is 90 octagons and 72 connecting diamonds. I was finally able to get these photos up because I replaced my six year old digital camera with a Sony Panasonic Lumix. It has a 25mm wide angle Leica lens, and was $199.00 at Best Buy. Very good deal, very nice camera for the price.














Went to a little cookie swap at Eleganza Yarn yesterday. I've been so busy with the side gig that I didn't even get a chance to bake for it. It was a small turn-out - other folks were feeling overscheduled as well, I have a feeling. Still, it was really nice. Here are the photos.

The lady below is wearing a beautiful orange shawl, and we all ooohhhed and ahhhhed over it. On my list of things to knit this year is to tackle a shawl project - I already have a beautiful purple yarn with silver sparkles that I bought online - I just have to find the right pattern at Kristi's shop (Eleganza Yarns in Frederick, MD).
