WIP Wednesday 7/25/12

I’ve bound off two shawls since last week!  These are the Wendy Knits Summer Solstice Mystery Shawl and Radiance.  As you can see, I still need to weave in ends and block, but then they’ll be done.   I’m hoping to persuade the boyfriend to do an FO photoshoot this weekend, so look out for these on future FO Fridays (it’s about time I had something to share for one of those!)

I’m still knitting along on Honey Bunches (which, for some reason, I keep wanting to call Honeycomb- not sure why).  This is my travelling knitting.  It’s so very simple, even on the lace sections, that I can easily put it down and figure out where I left off.  I’m on the third garter stitch section, so I’m getting closer to the end.

I’ve also brought the Ubiquitous Kate back out of its short hibernation, and am really enjoying working on it again.  I love knitting lace, but the purl design is a fun change.  With three other shawls also on the needles, I really didn’t have time to work on this one, but now that I’ve bound off two, this one is back in the mix.  I’m in the middle of the final chart repeat, then I will need to pick up about a gazillion stitches for the ruffle.

What is everyone else working on this week?  Head over to Tami’s Amis WIP Wednesday to find out.

I’ve definitely made some significant amount of knitting progress this week! I’m almost done with my Everlasting Bagstopper- just a few more rows to go, then the handles!

The Monkey socks are looking good as well. I’ve turned the heel on the first sock and started the foot.

I joined a second ball on the Truly Tasha's shawl- it doesn’t look like I’ve made a ton of progress, but I’m definitely moving on it.

Last but not least, I cast on last night for my mother’s birthday gift, a pair of Café Au Lait Mitts. I've just finished knitting the thumb gusset:
