Thrifting


I found these great arcopal ramekins that I just had to share with you! They are in mint vintage condition and were made in France. I love them!


Work has otherwise consumed me for the past few weeks.


But I've made a lot of progress.


And should have time to breathe by the holiday weekend :)

Current Projects

I started knitting a Feather and Fan Scarf from two Knit Picks Imagination sock yarns - Pixie Dust and Pirate King.


It is inspired by the swatch on the Knit Picks blocking mats.

I think the swatch might be the Chevron Scarf from Last Minute Knitted Gifts by Joelle Hoverson. I don't have enough yarn for that scarf and, unfortunately, I don't have that book yet. I've just added it to the list of books I want along with More Last Minute Knitted Gifts. Both of those books have great project ideas in them and I want them on my shelf :)


I also picked up the owl sweater after work on Friday. I have attached the arms and knitted 1/4 of the owls. Hooray!
