Fluffy Fabulousness

     GUESS WHAT?!


            ...


     Have you finished guessing yet?

     Okay, good.
     I finished a blanket!





















     IT'S SO FLUFFY!!! Seriously, this thing is about as soft as a baby unicorn. To you underprivileged few who haven't ever felt a baby unicorn, it's a lot like a bunny.
     You know, this blanket only took me about three weeks to complete, which is probably a world record somewhere. I'm glad I chose to make a simple pattern with the fluffy yarn, because if I'd done cables, there is no way that they would've shown up clearly!
     I used a (sadly) now discontinued Hobby Lobby yarn called "Riot Eyelash", and I think that it completely "makes" the blanket.

     The pattern is free, so if you want to make the fluffy fabulousness, go to: Addison pattern by Heather McVickar

Lately, I've Just Been Sockupied. Y'know?

     This project took way longer than I expected. Apparently, I'm a super slow knitter. *crying*
     But... I'm done now! So, here are my cabled socks!

 




















    *gasp* Aren't they BEAUTIFUL!?! You can't tell from the picture, but the yarn is sparkly. The sparkliness throws me over the top, man. I'm completely a crow, in that respect.

I love the sparklies.
If you would like to make this pattern, you can get the pattern for $6 at: Razzle Dazzle Socks pattern by Cynthia Levy and/or, you can sign up to Yarnbox, and get really cool patterns and yarn each month (which is what I did).
