Finished Object!
I'm in love with this sweater. It's the Airy Lace Wrap (or something to that effect) from Fitted Knits. It knit up really fast, although I had to take a break halfway through to power through Dad's birthday knitting. It's soft and comfy and surprisingly warm.

Other knitting this week included a lot of progress on my Clessidra inspired knee high socks. I'm about 10" up the cuff on sock #1. (I'm knitting them toe up) It looks great so far. I'll post a picture when I finish the first sock.
I also fell sway to temptation at the yarn shop Friday afternoon. I tried to leave without it... but I found myself turning around and walking back into the store. This seasilk crack... I couldn't resist it. And then to compound the decadence, I was forced to buy Victorian Lace today, because, you know, I just didn't have a suitable pattern for this silk in all my many pattern books.
Here's a sneak peak.
This is the "Wide and Handsome Border" I've completed 2 of the three repeats. After the border section is done I pick up stitches and knit a drop stitch pattern for the body of the scarf. OMG this yarn is like what I imagine Heroin is like. It's so amazing.

This is definitely a knit only at home project.
