I just got an awesome package from the Knitpicks Swap on Ravelry. I was also sent the Ruffle my Feathers pattern. I can't wait to use the Stroll Tonal in Canopy for the Ruffle my Feathers shawl! Everything else is amazing and I can't wait to use the mug. The chocolate and Jellybeans are delicious. I can't wait to try the coffee and the key chain will have a place of honor in my knitting room!  The buttons are really cute and have the Wizard of Oz quotes on them!

Monster Mania!

Here is one of the monster chunks I did up!

So I am on to my latest addiction. Knitting monsters! Yesterday I finally sent out my package for the Knitpick's swap. I have also started on my monster for the Monster Swap in the Danger Crafts group. I am not 100% sure if this is the one for the swap though. I will probably end up knitting a few before I decide which one I want to send.

But I need to get it out before the end of the month so I only have so much time!!!!!!!!!!

Monsters!!!!!!

My latest obsession is Monsters!!!!  Especially the ones by Rebecca Danger.  I have The Big Book of Knitted Monsters on order through Chapters.ca.  I really hope it get's here soon.  In the meantime I couldn't wait so I purchased the pattern for Olivia the Audacious Monster.  She is so freaking adorable!  I absolutely love her tutu the best.  I am making a badass version of Olivia in Magenta Cascade 220 with a black tutu and maybe some combat boots.  I really can't wait to be done!!!!!!!!!!!

I have also joined a monster swap!  First I have to finish my Knitpick's swap though and I hope to get that one together this weekend.

Socks!

Here is the start of my first toe up socks! I am using Diamond luxury collection Soxy. So far I love the yarn. It is very soft!

Hello, my name is Cindy and . . . . .

I am addicted to knitting.  Seriously.  I did finish up my Hedera's socks yesterday just in time for the end of the KAL on the knit.sock.love. board on Ravelry.  And I started a pair of Monkey socks.  Another Cookie A. pattern for another KAL lol.  I can't help myself I love knitting socks right now.

But in the spirit of Finishitupitis March I am working on existing projects!

Oh and my wrist is feeling better.  I have started wearing a brace when I am not knitting to help!
