Frogging, Finishing, and Casting on

Well, I frogged my "walking socks" today. I tried it on late last week and the yarn (Froehlich Wolle Special Blauband) just isn't nice or interesting enough to work in mindless stockinette. Oh, well...I'm thinking of pairing it with some black yarn (Brown Sheep Wildfoote Luxury Sock) that I have and making some striped knee-highs.

I also finished frogging the last big of my Dogwood Donna yarn. I still have the intarsia flower and a bit more on the side, since Nadine said she'd sew me a lining and put a zipper in it so that I'll have a little pouch. It's felted already, so I don't have anything else to do for it. Kind of an FO, kind of a WIP.

In FO-related news, I finished a baby cape that I was working on. The buttons are sewn on and everything! I just need to take some good pictures of it and it'll will be ready to send out. Oh, and apparently I have baby shoulders, since it fits me!

And finally...

I cast on for a new pair of socks for myself. I'm a bit worried that they're knitting up too small, but I seem to be getting the correct gauge for the pattern.

Comments:
The new socks look really nice. And the yarn is so pretty!
