Massive update part 1
Tonight I have a lot to share, mostly because of our new camera! Our old one hasn't been working for the past couple months, so I haven't had pics to share until tonight!
First up, yarn jars. I got this idea from Abigail who has one full of sock yarn. The jars are grand fun, moth proof, and lowish-cost (being from Ikea). I have one for sock & lace weight yarn, two for worsted, and one for bulky. They make me happy! This is the majority of my stash:
Second, EZ's Tomten, for Sweetie. It was a very fast knit. The varigated yarn is an alpaca/wool blend, while the straight up purple is Cacade Heathers. It's totally eye-bendingly bright, and it's so cute on her. I'll get pics of that eventually. :)
Third, Slippery Socks in STR Jewel of the Nile. Grand fun to knit. Eric is enamoured of them (I think he likes the colors). If I were to knit them again, I'd add a couple stitches to make the cables look nicer on my wide feet, but they're very comfortable to wear.
That's it for photo batch #1! More to come.

I love those yarn jars! What a great way to protect your yarn and still be able to see/enjoy it at the same time.
The socks are very cute! Now I wish I had more of those jars, but I don't have any space left for jars. Maybe it's time to rearrange. :)
Love it! Love the jars, the jacket, and the socks! So glad you got a new camera. It'll be nice to see more pictures from now on!
