I'm back

Wow it's been way too long since I've posted anything. Life really got in the way for a while. Lately the only free time I had was devoted to knitting. I ended up having a few of my deadlines moved up. The baby shower I am going to was moved up two weeks. So now instead of needing to finish a stuffed animal by the last weekend in November, I need it by a week from today. Aaaaarrrrrrrrgggggggghhhhhh! I did find a cute pattern though - I'm knitting a Sheldon.

The other project was one of the stockings. Long story but I decided to knit it for my grandma's birthday instead of Christmas and her birthday was last week. I did manage to finish it so it's my finished object this week.

This is only the second time I've done color work so I'm fairly pleased with it. I did knit a little bit tightly so it pulled a bit. I also got slightly turned around after turning the heel and ended up as a ridge of purl stitches. I decided not to rip it back as it sort of looks decorative. Can't wait to try the next one and see if it comes out even better.
