Okay, so I'm really just having too much fun with the titles. But I owe pictures.
My Hedera sock yarn still has to be dyed, or at least finished. It's purple, but I'm waiting for the weekend so that I can get two of my friends to stand in the back yard at the appropriate distance. lol Eunny Jang's tutorial uses lamps, I don't own lamps. I was going to use doorknobs, or a doorknob and Heather. But Heather can't stand still long enough and the doorknobs aren't the right distance.
The Italian Ice is all pretty and wound up into a skein. I had it put away but 
realized I'd forgotten the pictures. So here it is! I even untwisted it just for you, because you can't see
that Italian flag effect otherwise. It's important to see it, trust me. The pink looks more red in the pictures than it really is. Turned out drying to a nice neon pink...kinda like my hair. lol
I finally started on that
Baccarat Player top for my mom. It's got about 5 inches on it right now. I really need to hop on it, but it's kind of a boring pattern. lol Besides, I hate working flat. My sides always end up all wonky, even with the trick that Linda taught me. The gem yarn is still a pain too, anywhere the sparkly gold stuff is, the
loops are a different size. Which makes it look like I'm knitting unevenly. *sigh*
Alright, I ought to be cleaning or knitting...or something! Probably, I'm gonna knit, yesterday was rough and I need a breather. So, I'm off! Enjoy the pictures.

|I love that purple color! I think it will look great with that sock pattern.
Any plans for the flag yarn?
I can imagine it being annoying to work with the Gem. I hate it when my stitches seem uneven. but the sparkly bits are one of the things that makes the pattern so nice as a fancy top.

The flag yarn will be Jamie's pedicure socks. Her favorite colors are pink, green and white. So I thought that would be fun to dye...it just kinda turned out looking like a flag.
The top (though kinda wonky to me) does look really pretty. I'm hoping that when she wears it the stitches will stretch a bit so that you can't tell they are uneven. lol

I like the shaping of your mom's top a lot. It's very elegant yet simple. I'm sure they'll stretch out some.
