Earth, Wind, Fire

a few days late, but that's ok, since i'm setting the rules here.  the project spectrum months of february and march were busy ones for me.  in those two months i managed to knit 3 scarves, 1 cowl, 2 pairs of socks, 1 hat and spin some fire-y colored fiber.

since my last update, i finished a pair of monkey socks.

i made a few modifications such as adding extra stitches to accommodate my giant peds, and changing the heel and toe.  details are raveled.

then because i had some fire-y colored colinette point 5 in the stash and i hadn't knit anything in pink, i whipped up  two  quickie projects:  a simple garter stitch scarf out of point 5 in berry.

and a cowl out of point 5 in cezanne.   is it cheating knitting on size 17  needles?  because it certainly feels like it.

the next element is earth with greens, browns and metallics. 

god this post is lame.  sorry.

yes, it is cheating. don't do that.

The Monkeys love fabulous in the Colinette! You've got some great photos of difficult reds there too.

Nothing with this much saturated color could ever be considered lame.

If you say so, but your PHOTO's are stellar! Especially the bobbin one!

Love it!

I'm really surprised that the Colinette striped like that. It looks cool, though.

What's lame about it? Love the cowl, I've been waiting to see it!

size 17, *NICE*!

Just because there isn't a ball of wool making out with a dirty acrylic ex-bf doesn't mean the post is lame! Beautiful colors, I really love the colors in your scarf. Gorgeous!

I love all of those colors, especially the cezanne.

I love the pink scarf! OOOH pink!

Not lame! Pretty pictures!! Pretty pretty.

I agree with Carole!

No post of yours is ever lame. I love seeing the colors!
