Knitting Progress

I guess this post will test just how easy it actually is to use the Blogger Images thingie.

I've been on a knitting kick lately. I just finished this baby afghan (for a friend, not me):

And then, there are my "hippie socks". These are
actually my second hippie pair--since I've found places in Columbia where I can buy "real, live" sock yarn (fingering weight, if you're curious). I thought these colors had a great "beachy" feel to them, and the yarn automatically makes the stripes, so I don't have to sit here and carefully switch yarn after yarn.... blecch! no fun! After these, I've already got a pattern picked out for another baby blanket...for yet another friend.
