Dishcloths and socks and packages - oh my!

I have been trying to write this post for 2 days but I never seem to get around to it. I better get going before I run out of steam again.

Here is the October KAL for the dishcloth group. It is sort of hard to see the pattern but it is a cat. I started this in black but I could not see the pattern well so I went with the hot orange instead. Details are here as always. A cute and easy pattern over all.

Here is my fuzzy foot progress. I was able to accomplish all of this last Wednesday. I worked on it while I was out knitting with my girls and then continued when I came home to watch Lost and Dancing with the Stars. It is an easy pattern and I am halfway through the heel flap. Although I did get a little overexcited and knit 4 inches instead of 3 for the cuff but oh well. I just have to make sure the next one matches.

Finally in the mail today to cheer up a dreary Tuesday I received my bookmark exchange package from my partner Lisa. She really spoiled me. She sent some chocolate (lavender flavored), chai tea, The Other Boleyn Girl (which sounds interesting) and her bookmark. Thank you so much Lisa! I hope you like my package as much as I like mine.

In conclusion - Go Get 'Em Tigers, my Sparty's suck (I really don't want to go freeze my butt off on Saturday while the Buckeyes kick our behinds) and what the heck is up with this? Until next time ....

I used orange for my dishcloth, too.

I'm so glad you like the package. It's my favorite chocolate and especially wonderful when you're having a bad day. The chai tea is delicious hot and iced.
