My first Post!

OK, so it is my first post on this blog.

It is early June, and it is getting H O T in Texas.  I have quite a few things going on in the knitting world. 

First I am going to Camp.  Camp Loopy that is!

For Project One, I am making the Lintilla Pattern by Martina Behm.

I am making it with Madeline Tosh Sock Yarn in colorway Safron (close to burnt orange).  Here it is after 20 pattern repeats:

I am really enjoying knitting this.  I am thinking of making a few of this designer's other patterns.

Then, in early July there is a KAL with Michelle Hunter.

I got the yarn and this picture is of the yarn on my bed sheet.  I am planning on making this pillow (or multiple pillows) for my bed, so I got the Simply Sage to match....I think it matches ok, what do you think?

In late July....starting as the same time as the Olympics is the Ravelympics.  I am proud to be a captain of Team Texas Yarnivore 2012.  You can read all about it here, and I am sure I will be mentioning it more in the coming weeks:
