If you caught my FO Friday post, you'll know I finished up the Brighton socks and Terrain scarf, so I don't have much on the needles right now for knitting.

FO Friday
Two finished things to talk about this FO Friday - both happen to have a definite leaning towards purple, although that wasn't planned. 🙂 First up, I finished Terrain.

FO Friday: Softly Spoken

I really enjoy knitting her patterns as they tend to be fairly straightforward knits with a nice combination of pretty but not overly complex details. I had been looking for some patterns to… Continue reading FO Friday: Softly Spoken
