Pictures, Pictures and More Pictures!

Here is the completed Linen Stitch Scarf. It's laid out in all of it's glory. Here's a closer view to the left. It really does look like a piece of linen.
Next, comes my knitting library. I had finally cleaned up part of my bedroom and gathered all of my knitting books and put them in one place so they will be easier to find. And yes, that is two crochet books that you see on the shelf also. After I had taken this picture I did find my Fix It book. My Style Book did not make the photo shoot because it is actually be used for my Midwest Moonlight Scarf. That is on the needles and is on hiatus. Wrap Style is missing also. I wonder where that book is hiding.

Here is my Frog Tree Scarf in progress. You can see the stitch markers. I honestly believe that these stitch markers have made the world of difference in my progress. I am amazed at how much I have gotten done. I am liking this pattern better and better. I am anxious to see it completed and blocked in all of its glory.

Here is some yummy sock yarn that I have recently purchased. There are two skeins of Austerman's Step, one of Trekking XXL and one of Opal. One of these skeins will become a pair of toe-up socks. Friday is the first of four classes to learn how to knit. I am so excited about finally learning how to knit a pair of socks.
Here is some lovely Malabrigo in the Amoroso colorway. This lovely skein is going to become a cowl from the book Last Minute Knitted Gifts. I originally saw this knitted up at Fiddlesticks. Mindy had used a different yarn. She also had demonstrated how to wear it. I am thinking of knitting this up for me.
Last but not least, here are six skeins of Malabrigo in the Saphire Magenta colorway. These six gorgeous skeins are going to become The Lady Eleanor. I have signed up for a second class at Fiddlesticks to learn how to knit up The Lady Eleanor. I am excited about this class also.
Well enough yarn porn for now. Time for a shower and then it's knitting time! Have to make some progress on that Frog Tree Scarf. I also need to look for another scarf. This time I am going to look for a scarf that is going to knit up very quickly.
Time to Knit!
