A lot has gone on this week at home and at work, I'll save you the drama and get right to...
the knitting...
socks commissioned by Rita of Yarn Hollow
Cookie A's Summer Sox.
one Ugly Sock done, second one started
the fiber...
I'm happy to say I had the opportunity to support a friend and add to my fiber stash this week. Emily had intended to re-stock her Etsy shop. She brought in a few braids to show her new colorways and several of them didn't make it back home with her. I promised to post a pic of the ones that came home with me so others could enjoy the pretty. So here they are.
the pooches...
I know I can't post without a mention (and a pic) of LittleDog so here's today's offering, along with one of big brother Sam (who insisted that I take his pic too)
PS: Tamara, LittleDog wanted me to tell you that we're sending good thoughts to your family in Syria and we all hope that they are staying safe during this super-scary time. Also, thanks for following us on Pinterest.

The ribbing on the Capucine looks like thick luscious fringe!
I use my finger to push my needle too, so I can understand your pain. Great projects you have going on, and great fiber!
Wow! Purple Socks!!
I'm not usually one for purple, but me likey!
... and of course I've already told you I love the ugly socks too. :-)
Very interesting how the dyes are different for the different wools.
Can't wait to see a picture of your finished Summer Socks. I always enjoy seeing pictures of other blogger's dogs - should post more of my Pukie more often.
Love all the knitting and ooohh, pretty fiber! Good to see Sam today as well! We're working on our FAF post over here, it's just I have a 5 pound sleeping puppy in my lap and it's taking a lot longer to post than normal...
Chiaogoo means handy girl, you are a handy girl :-)
Love those fiber braids, interesting how different fiber takes on the dye.

Wowza! Looks like I'm not the only one super productive. I love that hat pattern. It will be fabulous in handspun.
I love the socks ... can't decide which pair I like best!
Nice selection of socks you have going.
Wow! You are super busy. Little dog is so adorably adorable. I have to say my favorite is the Capucine. Lovely all around.
I love the fibre. have so much fun spinning it.
Aww, so sweet. The socks look great, too!!

Great projects, I love my capucine although I had a few problems with the sizing. The fibre is gorgeous, are you going to spin them together?
