Yep, I’m crocheting again. But, first, some finished knitted items.

I finished Aaron’s Wonderful Wallaby some time ago:

He loves it. He especially loves that it’s “electric blue.”

I also finished my Tomato, which I blogged pretty extensively about on the River Knits Blog.

In case you didn’t know, Malabrigo is now my very favorite yarn ever in the whole world.

Now, on to the current project: The Lacy Swing Top from the Sept/Oct issue of Crochet Today!  This is the center square:

See how the very center is kind of wonky? No? Here’s a closer look:

Now you see it. Yeah, I hate that. So I’m trying again, using a smaller hook just for the very center part. We’ll see how it turns out. The yarn is Silk City Silk Denym in a dark green. It’s been in my stash for a while. Honestly, I bought a full 1 lb cone of the stuff, then didn’t have any idea what to do with it. This seems to be the perfect project. I’m anxious to get the second square completed so I can move on the to the next step. Hopefully using a smaller hook for the center will solve my wonky problem.

BTW: I’m also still working on the River Knits Mystery Shawls. Once I get one finished, I’ll post more about the details.
