It's all 'ruby bright'! The second Leaf Lace Shawl by Fiber Trends just because I have the pattern and I have the yarn. 4 skeins of Rowan Kid Classic on a size 9 needle. It's knitting up fast and pretty! (and I dislike mohair!) I might wear this to my sons wedding in September.

Cookie A's 'Twisted Flower Socks' in Louet Gems fingering. A beautiful pattern as are all of her socks, tedious but not difficult. Should I wear the socks to the wedding too? Shall I take a vote?

Then there's my new knitting spot. My rocker from Cracker Barrel Restaurant. Don't you buy your furniture at restaurants?

Lots of lovely red knitting - makes me (almost) regret not buying some red Kid Classic yesterday when I had the chance. Will have to file away in memory.

Re the socks at the wedding - well, it would clearly depend on the rest of the outfit!!

I love your knitting--I always love your knitting. Having previously not advanced beyond scarves, washcloths, or bandages, I'm tickled to say that you inspire me so much that I've just finished an actual shawl (I'll post about it next week) with which I used Louet yarn. Soon I'm going to again try tackling a pair of socks.

About the rocking chair from, I love their chairs. When we move back south in a couple of years, I've already informed my husband we're buying some for our porch from Cracker Barrel. I make him stop at those restaurants when we travel so I can sit a bit and rock.

Diana, I love the red! That will be very pretty. And I just had breakfast at CB this morning! I love shopping at that store. I got a pair of my favorite earrings there years ago. Kinda weird place for jewelry shopping, too, eh? :o)

I am praying for your dh!
