{WIP Wednesday}

I broke out ye olde Singer last night, and set it up on a fold out table. At the fabric store a few nights ago, Bird (DD age 3 1/2) picked out a pattern and asked if I would sew it for her. Ready for a new challenge (and feeling a little guilt that I haven't made her a dress since she was about 1 1/2) I happily agreed.

At the moment I just have the main fabric - Strawberry Shortcake yay! - but I'm looking forward to hitting up the store by myself for a contrast fabric, and maybe even a little lace trim. Fun!

Still a constant W.I.P. are my dreadlocks. Right now the color is a mish-mosh of washed out burgundy, my natural brown, and bleach. I'm not crazy out it but, it doesn't bother me enough to run out and buy more color right now.

Like my Dali impression? ;)

Freshly washed yummm

I'm not really a sock knitter but I couldn't resist these!

Slow but steady progress on the first of two Trellis socks I'm working on. I like the cuffs on my socks a bit on the short side so, instead of 4 pattern repeats for the cuff, I only worked one before starting the heel flap.

Yay for heel flaps!

The Trellis Socks are a design from Lorraine Ehrlinger. Mediumweight Socks That Rock in "Chickabiddy".
