I blinked twice....

May disappeared and June rapidly followed.  There have been appointments and birthdays, retirement shindigs and block parties, as well as one short notice surgery (Husband's shoulder is healing beautifully).
Through it all, I have knit.  I have also bought oodles of yarn I have yet to photograph.  Enough of the yarn was bought from EatSleepKnit  that I earned a special skein of yarn from the current Yarnathon:

Not my first choice of a colorway, but it will make some lovely fingerless mitts I think!
I re-bought the Gator Purse kit, so I could have a new dragon purse in a decent size (old, small one in picture for scale; gauge matters).

Said bag is complete, but to prove my brain is not clear, I just realized I deleted the completed project photo by accident.
I also completed a couple of sweaters:
The Liza, which I am calling my WannaBe Wood Elf Cardigan:

And the first of three June Lake tops, the first one is in KnitPicks Stroll Tonal colorway Malbec:

This piece has already been worn to one of said block parties...and I adore it.
Much work was also put into the Just Be You mkal: (Again, piece is completed, yet un-blocked and un-photographed)

It's a gorgeous shawl with heavy beading towards the end.  So sparkly!

I may also have started at least one more shawl knit along called Organized Chaos

The name was too perfect for me not to cast it on, having the yarn in stash was a driving factor as well.
The last knitting I've been working steadily on is socks for Husband and his over sized feet.

Each one is the size of a sweater sleeve for me.  Did I mention that there are two pair on the needles and one pair waiting to be cast on?  They feel a bit daunting.
But as testament to prove he is deserving, here's one of the wonderful things he bought me for my birthday:

He got me my House blanket and then insisted I put it up in our room!  Just one of the reasons I will continue to knit him socks.
Planning has already begun for Halloween, in between the bouts of knitting, of course.
