So much on the Needles ..........and a Contest !

I have my desk knitting for when I'm up in my office, my own hand spun well on its way to becoming fingerless mitts

another shawl I have waiting in the wings I made it to row 20 of the set up row and stopped but I will get back to it! and yes that is Wollmeise (which was a wonderful gift from a good friend :) the picture really doesn't do that color justice.

and of course I have two toys on the needles, I am still going to make one for the Toy Society this year if it kills me!
The bear pattern is from Knitables not only are her patterns the cutest ( she has a knitted ladybug pattern!!!) But she also donates a percentage of each pattern or pattern collection to charity and they are well worth the price if you love to knit toys you should really check her patterns out , she is also on Ravelry as knitables
I am giving an Honorable mention to my lonely Little purse sock ( really its just a cuff ) that I neglected to take a picture of and is barely knitted on even though it goes everywhere with me. That is all that I have OTN at the moment ....I think
