I finished the first of the Lichen Ribbed Socks:



The yarn feels very nice and the sock is generally a good fit (it's a bit loose in the ankle, but that may be because I used a mostly cotton yarn).

In addition to using a heel turn I'd never used before, it also has a different type of toe:



This is called a Star Toe of Three Points (there are three decrease points which converge near the tip). The decreases are done as a p2tog so they are more obvious than on some kinds of socks.

I rather like that toe.

I also finished a very long-term project, the Art Mohair stole I've been working on for a little over two years (I think). Not that it was such a difficult project but it tended to get pushed aside in favor of other things:



I'm glad it's done.

Here's a detail of the "feather lace stitch." The pattern for the stole came from the Lark Press book "Exquisite Little Knits."



(You can also see my little fluorescent gro-light set up in that picture.)

I also finished the back of the Kenobi jacket (no photo). I've begun the left front of it as well.

It was a good weekend for finishing things.
