Fernando and FO

Fernando is gaining weight steadily. He's rather a quiet little guy but that may change soon with the June arrival of two more crias for him to play with.

I've been knitting lots but have not shared with you too much about my progress.

My Vitamin D cardigan is all done and I've had the chance to wear it already. No pics yet, so I'll be back with the details.

I've also completed a shawlette that I test knitted for Mjin.

 The pattern is Volve and is available on Ravelry.

The yarn I used is thicker than what was suggested in the pattern, so my shawlette is almost shawl size...which I prefer.

Pattern: Volve (available here)

Designer: Mette Jin Mayland

Yarn: Pastaza (by Cascade) 50% wool, 50% llama (2.5 skeins)

Needles: 5.5 mm

For the past few days, I've been itchin' to cast on another pair of toe-up socks. I've been searching through patterns and after contemplating colourwork socks, I've settled for these.
