The Secret Sweater is done!
Yay, I finished! Well, the knitting is finished. I still need to block and seam it but that won't happen until after this weekend, since I have potential students coming to stay with me.
Anyway, no pictures of the sweater, but I do have a couple of other pictures for you tonight. :)
First off, some goodies from Shona:
The famous Jaffa Cakes, which I've never tried but will now have the chance to! She also sent Fruit Pastilles, which apparently are also very good, and a keychain for Edinburgh.
This is perfect for two reasons - one because I haven't been having the best week. Second because my keychain broke tonight! Yes, my big green tape measure that allows me to locate my keys from many feet away finally bit the dust. Well, first the tab fell off the tape measure part, but I had my uncle melt it back on. Then it was getting weak again so I taped it. Now the part connecting it to the ring has broken and I think it's time that it becomes just another tape measure.
And now for the second picture, the very little progress I've made on my Sockapalooza socks:
Yep, purple ruffley cuffs. That's all. It was a lot of stitches to cast on, okay!

haha. mustn't scare away the potential students with sweaters parts laying around all stuck up with pins. *snicker*
oh, purpley ruffles! fun :)
*pets own box of jaffas*
oh yum.
it is taking great restraint to have only eaten one box out of 3, and one roll out of 4. you shall see, once you open them. make sure the jaffas get sealed up tight between tastes. they get stale kinda easily.
*wipes away drool*
these jaffa cake things intrigue me. you need to share the story of how they taste with us.
I hope you're feeling better!
So... what's a jaffa cake? I am guessing there is chocolate involved??
what a lovely shade of purple!
I must I must, I must learn to knit 2 on 2!! Good on ya. I still don't understand what Jaffa cakes are.. but.. I like fruit chews!! :D
Love the color of the sockapaloooza socks! (Hey, speaking of socks... my mother-in-law tells me that a package arrived there with yarn that I ordered while I was there, quite possibly including a skein of a certain Meilenweit sock yarn!)
