Nothin' but Knittin'

It has been so long since I posted anything knitting-related on this blog, I decided to dedicate the whole post to knitting.

Here is a pair of recently finished socks made from Trekking:

And another pair of socks made from Sirdar Town & Country:
And a Clapotis made for a co-worker's birthday:

She's a purple person. This is made from Knit Picks Gossamer in "Sweet Pea". I knit this double-stranded, and love how the colors pooled. Here's a close-up.

OK, that's it. Nothing today about Emma and Tara... or the boy dog that is in a shelter in Georgia that my niece Jen emailed me about... the one that Jen (thanks-a-whole-heck-of-a-lot) sent a picture of that looks a little like Tara... the one that is a Cocker-Aussie mix... did I mention he is a boy?... did I mention I've never had a boy dog? Nope, I'm not even going to think about him. He is out of the question.

Oh, by the way, I just sent an email to the shelter...

Oh no, we're not thinking about another dog, are we? Of course not. It's hard to say no. I stay out of shelters because I am that way with cats. I keep asking myself "How much trouble would one more be?" Thankfully, we have a limit on the number of the animals we are allowed to own.

Socks and Clappy are lovely.

Is he yours yet?

Oh dear, I do know that feeling of needing to rescue another one :)

I love that Clapotis. LOVE it!! How much of the yarn did you use? I am thinking about doing something similar and I can't estimate yardage to save my life.
