Still beautiful weather

It's a beautiful day

And I do not have my camera so I can't take pictures of all the knits I intended to show you. Waiting for a sunny day, and then, of course, I forgot my camera.

So, if I had my camera, I would have shown photos of a long list of FOs: the log-cabin blanket [Ravelry link], the blue sweater [Ravelry link], the pinwheel sweater [Ravelry link], my handspun scarf [Ravelry link], the sock yarn shawl [Ravelry link], a hanging towel [Ravelry link] from the new Mason-Dixon book, and an I-cord blue hat [Ravelry link].

Well, next time.

Severe Weather Alert

Again? Yep, 98ยบ with no wind again today, and probably tomorrow and Wednesday as well. Maybe correlated to the extreme temperatures, two extraordinary events: my stash dropping below 400 balls and my uttermost lack of desire of casting on anything new. When not focused on my new toy (meet Guglielmina), I have been finishing up projects laying around since last year:

Baby Surprise Jacket
EZ Baby Surprise Jacket in Lana Grossa Numero UnoPrint

Got the buttons last night, it's done!

Blue Sweater
Paperino's blue sweater, in Fibranatura Sensational and Karabella Aurora 8

Almost done, ends still loose, and .... the collar. What have this two projects in common? A freakishly small collar and EZ's instructions (I made up the sweater on the fly but I followed EZ's instructions for the collar), so I am starting to think that she had a penchant for freakishly small collars.
