Tap, tap, is this thing on?

So it looks like I'm not really posting much. What news?

I finished my Delilah sweater. It is awesome, and I have two balls left. Not quite enough for a vest, I don't need another hat/mittens/scarf set. Socks? I'm not sure how hard-wearing it is, and it's not extremely sproingy.

I started a bike helmet liner for cold weather. It's constructed unusually. There are double-layer triangular ear flaps which go over the straps, an applied headband, and then there will be loosely knit crown.

I made some more socks, including a leafy lace pair. You can see the pattern on zaposa.

The Noro socks turned into a single rice sock. Then I made fingerless gloves embroidered with "MORE DOTS" on the knuckles. There's about one sick worth of yarn in Noro Kureyon and Louet Gems (combined) that I have no idea what to make with.

I designed a perpendicularly knit sock and made a 2" proof-of-concept. My advisor got me some great sock yarn from Salzburg, so I have plans to make a few full-size socks.

I made a bunch of other stuff, but no other big or exciting projects. I think I'll do another year of stash reduction. It's escaping the stash drawer again.

Yea! You posted! Can't wait to see the sweater. Are you sure you're done tweaking it?
