WIP Wednesday

Finally there has been some progress on the Strip Search quilt!  This quilt uses two sets of jelly rolls.The first step is to sew them into 9 sets of 5 strips sewn together, and 10 sets of 6 strips sewn together.  I've finished the 5 strip sets, and last night I got the first of the 6 strips set.


The fabric is from Kansas City Troubles.  Their fabrics are a favourite of mine.

These are the knitting projects I've been working on this last week.

This is a Hitchhiker scarf.  I'm using Sweet Georgia Tough Love sock yarn for this.  The colour is called Coal Harbour.


It's called a Hitchhiker because you should end up with 42 of the little teeth; 42 is the answer to Life, The Universe and Everything after all!

I've also started another pair of socks.  This is Lorna's Laces Solemate sock yarn, and the colour is called Camouflage.


The Solemate yarn feels nice and silky.  I've made several pairs of socks with this brand of yarn.

Tomorrow night is Fibre Night!  Lots of fibre, friends and laughter.  Can't wait!
