Happy all around

Happy feet:
Neapolitan done!

(The Neapolitan socks)

Happy shoulders:

Bloom finished

(Bloom, all finished).

The Neapolitan socks didn't come out 100% identical - I attribute that to the fact that the first sock was the one with the breaks and joins in it, so the foot part wound up with shorter repeats of some color. Still, it's close enough to please me.

More views of Bloom:

It's also a lot of fun to play with, to kind of swirl and twirl like it's a cape or a circle skirt:

Now I just need for it to get cool enough to be able to wear all these good things.

Oh - Bloom really is pretty. I love how it swirls too.

I also like how Bloom swirls...very unique. And I really like the socks. Something about that color combination really appeals to me. Great job! You're inspiring me to finish up a few projects so that I can start something new...the unusual heat killed any desire I had for knitting. But it's much cooler today, and should stay that way for awhile. I'll hope the same for you.

I love both bloom and the socks. Bloom looks great on you. We just had a cold front move it, and hopefully it will head down your direction soon.

Bloom looks wonderful and wonderful on you! Now get Kenobi going again, I want to see that too! (Nothing like a little well meaning pressure... sorry about that)
