But my camera battery is dying! Come on battery... hold out through the transfer...
*fingers crossed*
*sigh of relief!*
Here are a few pictures that I took of the lovely Yarn Harlot:
I swear she wasn't that serious at the talk, but apparently those were the moments I captured! In the first picture, you can see her getting her sock out of her sock bag. I believe that sock has since been completed if you take a look over at her blog.
And I braved the outside world for you this morning to get a few sunshine shots. I didn't run out there in my PJs, I did take time to put on jeans and a bra.... hmm, that sounds bad... I was wearing a shirt too! Anyway, moving on...
Here is the lovely Kauni Clappy...
I love the colors!!
Here's a better look at my dropped stitches. My only gripe so far is that the Kauni yarn is very sticky (in yarn ways, not in a sticky like a lollipop way), so the dropping isn't the easiest. Can anyone tell how I modified the pattern?
In my other favorite project right now are my Pewter socks. I was knitting on the first one at the Yarn Harlot event and just finished it the other day.
I actually used that Notes section on Ravelry for this sock and made careful notes (in my own shorthand... if someone else could follow the pattern, I'd be amazed) so the second one will match.
My very happy about the sock because I only tried it on once during the entire knitting and it fits perfectly. Now if only I could have that same level of perfection in knitting larger garmets. I might wear something that I've knitted other than my socks and scarves.

Oo! Oo! You cast on more than 2 stitches to start!
(Okay, so I had to go look up the pattern, but I *did* remember that the cast-on wasn't as long as yours is.)
(Er, looks. Because maybe I'm wrong...)

Beautiful Clap! The color of the yarn fading in and out is gorgeous! And the pattern starts without the triangle bit at the bottom, so you start on the angled mid-section right away :) Loves it
