Finished!

I finished my super secret project, and I'll post pictures sometime next week. Yay for making deadlines!

Meanwhile, I'm still working on the elephant, which, unfortunately, seems to be a bit wonky. Assuming it's presentable when I finish, it's going to be a baby shower gift for a coworker.

I got my yarn order, and that Ella Rae Bamboo Silk is sooooo soft. I've cast on frogged twice now Branching Out from Knitty.com and am pleasantly surprised by how easy it is. I can now ssk, yo, and k2tog. Go me! Of course, I keep screwing up and having to frog, but what's a knitting project that's never been frogged, huh? I think my problem is with counting. I'll think I'm following the pattern and then suddenly run out of stitches. But I did manage to fix a dropped yo, which is quite impressive, even if it was before I frogged for the 2nd time.

The dodecahedron I'm going to crochet with the Berroco Sox may prove too tedious, and I may just have to attempt socks with that yarn instead. It's just so thin and the crochet starts out big and then decreases instead of the opposite, which is what I'm used to. I'm not sure how to join a chain of 25ish stitches without it twisting. Trial and error, I guess. Socks are sorta calling my name now, though, since I thought of it... I could always by more Berroco Sox... yeah...
