Slacker Post

I have been a blog slacker.  There are many projects I have finished, and none that were posted.  I've mainly been yarning lately, but I did embroider a hoop for a craftster swap.  It had to monocromatic, and my partner likes peacocks so I did this:

I finished my first knitted sweater.  The shoulders didn't come out quite right so I need to steek them to lay correctly.  Steeking is sewing the fabric where you want it and cutting off the extra.  I hear it's pretty easy to do with knitting, and I'm too afraid to try it with crochet pieces.

In order to use up some of my cotton stash I made myself a Rust Goes Green market bag (free pattern on Ravelry) that I didn't take a picture of.  Sasha at work liked it and bought her own cotton so I crocheted her this one:

Finally I knit the Vesitality pattern from Knitty.  I don't have the buttons on yet, and I haven't blocked it.  Once those are done I'll share pictures.

I hope everyone is enjoying there summer so far, and I hope to have some bigger projects done to share soon.
