As promised, photobloggage for the week:

Why yes, my guest bedroom does smell like a wet alpaca

I finally decided to block the vest. It's hard to block something that's body-shaped, in the absence of a dress form. I may eventually break down and buy a padded dress form.

This is my standard blocking - pin it out, then spray with warm water. I consider the sheets it's on to be fairly expendable.

The Kat Shawl, or I'm not a bad photographer, lace is just hard to photograph

Detail of the shawl, with yoga mat

This is just part of the shawl - it's the center, and it's not quite finished yet. The borders will add about 9" on each side, unblocked.


And finally:

Rockin' sock, or That 70s Sock

The heel flap is about 1/3 to 1/2 done in this shot. I'm using eye-of-partridge with a garter stitch edging.
