Socks were a success!!

I am just about done my Mom's socks.  I have a couple of rows left to do on the toe.  Unfortunately I didn't have them both done for dinner last night at my parents place.  So I wrapped up the finished sock and gave her that with a note that the other would follow in a couple of days LOL.  She loved it.

I've also been working on another pair of socks.  The Harpa Socks in Knitpicks Essenital "Russet Tweed".  So far I've got the cuff done and I've started on the heel flap.  They are really neat ankle socks!

There is another pattern I've been eye-balling.  And I've got the perfect yarn for it!
Oatmeal Pullover by Jane Richmond.  I had originally started using this yarn for a giant granny square blanket I was constructing.. but I saw this and all that went out the window!  This is the yarn Red Yarn.
I've also got some nice navy blue, pale blue and a rich cream colour that this sweater could be made into.. I think I might have to make a few of them for my closet!

I also picked up this pattern while ordering the Oatmeal Pullover.. Beatrice  I've got this great green yarn that I made my sister's purse out of "Purse" and I think I'm going to make the Beatrice out of the 3 skiens I've got left over!

How is everyone's projects going?  Anything exciting happen on the weekend?

Blog Tour: Romancing the Countess by Ashley March

About the book: Sebastian Madinger, the Earl of Wriothesly, thought he'd married the perfect woman-until a fatal accident revealed her betrayal with his best friend. After their deaths, Sebastian is determined to avoid a scandal for the sake of his son. But his best friend's widow is just as determined to cast her mourning veil aside by hosting a party that will surely destroy both their reputations and expose all of his carefully kept secrets... Leah George has carried the painful knowledge of her husband's affair for almost a year. All she wants now is to enjoy her independence and make a new life for herself-even if that means being ostracized by the Society whose rules she was raised to obey. Now that the rumors are flying, there's only one thing left for Sebastian to do: silence the scandal by enticing the improper widow into becoming a proper wife.
