I wasn't planning on having any knitting projects on the needles for a while, but what can I say... I found a great pattern! The girls over at zephyr style are fantastic. As soon as I saw Glee I bought it and had yarn in the dyepot within an hour. I've been dying (dyeing, ha!) to dye my own yarn for a sweater project and I love that this is done in sport weight. So many patterns I find use worsted/aran weight and I've been wanting something lighter that I can wear in the fall and on vaca.

I think this is the largest yarn cake I've ever seen! Before I started it weighed in at about 12 oz. I dyed up almost a pound but had some problems when it came to winding it up. My ball winder and I already had a love/hate relationship and I don't think this helped much. I'm sure it will ask for a trial separation soon :).

Oh, and another weekend project...

Just a smallish envelope pilllow for an Ikea chair that I wanted to soften up a bit.

Cushiness approved!
