This week we finally get to catch up with each other!
I share several works in progress (including a new pair of socks and a baby sweater), some spinning and future spinning projects, a few purchases I made over the last month, and a reminder that the Spinzilla signups are coming up at the beginning of September.

Turtle Purl Striped Turtle Toes - In My Element |
I'm making a second Storytime Scholar Cardigan, pattern by Lisa Chemery, in the 2T-3T size, using Cascade Ecological Wool.
I also showed the Tin Can Knits Rocky Joggers I'm making out of some Smith & Ewe sparkle yarn. Going to frog to make a better size, but loving the pattern!
FOs -
Recorded on a whim this week and all my FOs are upstairs! Will talk about them next show. Look forward to 2 shawls, 1 hat, and a pair of socks next time!
Acquisitions -
Yarn in the Dreamboat colourway from Sweet Georgia Yarns, on the Tough Love base, which I plan on using to make another pair of Waving Lace Socks by Evelyn A. Clark, from Favorite Socks (Interweave Press, 2007).
