Check out what others are working on at Judy’s Patchwork Times!

Have a great weekend!  I plan on spending as much time as I can sitting in my chair knitting on the Reader’s Wrap (and nursing a very painful knee).

  5. Socks are my favorite knitting project because of the portability. But I am currently working on larger projects. That pink self striping is nice.
