Knitting Life Away

I have been trying to catch up on all kinds of stuff here! I have been working on Hey, Teach! Yesterday, I finished it!! Here it is with just it's button band done:Here it is with it's buttons sewed on and 100% done:

It came out so cute! I love the fit and the color. I did extend the body by two inches so that it would hang a little longer than the pattern said. I think I will wear it to work tomorrow with a black long sleeved shirt.

Now that my "big" project is done, I did want to start one or two of the projects that I bought yarn for a while ago. However, I have a little time this morning, so rather than casting on something new, I had the brainstorm to work on something that I haven't finished.

I have a few choices...

One is this sock:I do admit that I picked this up and worked on it about two weeks ago. I have FINALLY turned the heel and am now working on the gusset. This is sock one of two.

My next choice was my pink lace shawl that I have been working on forever:

This is the project that I really did want to work on.There's just one problem... I can't find my pattern!!!! I have no idea what I did with it. I have the book upstairs, but I had a photocopy of the lace chart in the bag with it. Now, the chart with all my row counts is MIA. I guess, I'll have to send out a search and rescue mission for it.

So, that brings us to my last choice:

Mystery Stole #4. I did pick this up again this morning. I have been kind of bad about working on this since I found out that when I get to clue #6 I have to put this half on a holder and start the whole thing again! Serves me right for losing the pink lace pattern. I'm hoping to tackle a few rows of this so that I can get closer to clue #5... I'm stuck on clue #4 right now. About 30 more rows and I'll graduate to #5. Woo-hoo!
It's a great day to sit inside and knit! I seem to be so busy every weekend, that sitting and knitting seems like a luxury today!
