so much work... so little to show

so, bunch of little things, and probably two posts tonight, since i'm waiting for my darling FH to get home so he can take pictures of my new shrug (that's right, it's all finished!!)

i've entered into the "black hole" on the baby blanket (for those of you unfamiliar with the concept, check here). so no progress pictures on that one... come to think of it, i don't think i've shown any pictures on that one. i'll post one after the stitch and bitch tomorrow.

here are three pairs of earrings i made to angel for the swap i was just in... i think my favorite is the third pair.



oh, and this one was hard to send off! it's a big bang theory charm bracelet (i love that show... i love it so much i put the first season on my wedding registry).... problem is i don't think my partner shall be reciprocating. she seems to have disappeared.

and progress!!! the second mitten has been sewn and the top has been added. now we just need the cuff and the thumb!

and in an immense feat of personal growth, i finished the second slipper. i had the first one finished and sewn, and three of the small squares made for the second one (they're the kabouter slippers from ravelry). so i undid and re-sewed the first slipper because i didn't like the way i did it before, then made the fourth small square and the large square for the second one.
note to self: when leaving a project for months (like... january...) try and stick a note on it that tells you which hook you were using. still, i think they turned out ok.
tomorrow i plan on going to yarn group, doing all the laundry, soaking my shrug in eucalan (after i test it on a swatch, of course) and bleach stenciling and tie-dyeing a few shirts for a different swap. think i'll get it all done??
