I finished Teo's slippers. Did I mention I was knitting him some? They were such a fast knit. I knit a basic sock using two strands of wool yarn and it honestly only took about an hour per sock. I embroidered a little diamond detail on them. Teo loves them and has done a bang-up job of breaking them in already, scuffs, fuzz and all. Now I am the only one needing a pair of these. Just have to choose the yarn.
On the hoodie side of things, I am still waiting to get some photos, but I hosted a sewing lesson last night and actually sold the merino one, so I will eventually be getting the cotton/lycra one photographed and up in the shop. I will hopefully be getting more things made up in the next few weeks. I just need to finish up my exams and then go in for my surgery and then recover and then I will be tickity boo. Can't wait to get back into the workroom full-time.
I am just taking a break from exam study, so need to get back to it now. Here are some photos of the slippers and such.
Here is the Master himself. He is looking rather sullen, but he was just trying to watch his Saturday morning movie and I interrupted him...
This was far, far too early one morning, so we set up the train to entertain.
And this is what I did while he played with the train.

I know. I totally don't know how I've actually managed to make time for anything but study this semester, but I'm making the most of it because next year is going to be insane AHHH! And yes, we really must talk fabrics, because we are coming with fairly empty suitcases, so there will be room for a decent stash of fabric for ya. I have some from my own stash that I will try to squeeze in for you too, but I will see what the merino side of things has going on. xoxo can't wait to see ya!
