Even though I already have 4 projects on the needles, I swatched for Fluid Linen by Ilga Leja on the weekend in Rowan Bamboo Soft. This yarn is so incredibly soft and drapey. I wish the internet had a "touch and feel" feature so you could all feel it. I have high hopes for this shirt.
I recently picked up a new set of Addi Turbos for the purpose of trying magic loop. So far I am enjoying it, as I am also enjoying this Tofutsies yarn that someone was kind enough to pick up for me in New Brunswick last summer. The pattern is Waving Lace from Favorite Socks.
Now for the recent FO's:
Some small socks for my small sister in Knitpicks Essential Tweed. The reason that I have different colored heels and toes is because when I orderd this sock yarn I didn't notice that it came in 50g balls instead of 100g balls and orderd 3 balls of different colored sock yarn. Now I will be knitting two pairs of socks in this style.
A mohair scarf in a slanted open work pattern from my stitch dictionary using Kid Mohair from London-Wul.

Love Fluid Linen! I don't think I have seen that pattern before... how did I miss it?
Oh, yesterday I broke down and picked up Sea Urchin at Tangled Skeins... with yarn... I'm really on the downward spiral to complete yarn dependancy... and I'm loving it!
ooooooooh.... aaaaaaah!
(sorry, that was me expressing my awe at your projects. I'm not very poetic today.)
Love that scarf. And I'm sure that your sister will adore the socks. I'm partial to differently coloured toes and heels, myself.
