Regina Marie

  I've finally got my MDSW on the needles. It doesn't look like much at the moment.


 One day, hopefully by May, it will look more like this. It's Regina Marie by Sara Burch.



It's being knit sidesway with the end border going first. It brilliantly makes it's own stitches on the edge so you don't have to do the ugly pick up and knit thing when it's time to do the body.



 While I was rummaging around in the needle drawer looking for the right size needles to start the project, I came upon this thing. It was a free sample in a package of fiber I ordered many moons ago. I was never sure what the heck it was-until now.



It's a fancy schmancy point protector. Cool, yes?
