Not keeping up my end of things...

Obviously, I am not as productive as my lovely colleague. I have my reasons!
Nevertheless, here are two small things:


A sock in progress for my father in law. What do you think are the odds it, plus a mate, will be finished in time for his birthday party Saturday? Yeah, that's what I thought.




1/3 of a scarf (on metal 13s) for a friend. This yarn, FFF's Polar, is pretty nice to knit with, but I'm not sure it's worth the price for a very small, 33 yard, skein.






Here's a close up of the drop stitch pattern, which I've found works well for showing off ribbony yarns.
