WIP Wednesday: Inching Along

Happy Wednseday, I can't believe it's already that time, where has the week gone?

This week I am still working on my socks, with the hopes of finishing by Friday. The foot always takes the longest, which is a bit frustrating. But at least they will both be done at the same time!

I still LOVE this pattern and am picturing mods in my head already for future use.

I FINALLY picked up my Spindle again the other night, while watching Bambi, and managed to get a decent ammount done on my Merino/silk blend roving while keeping it consistent with past batches. I guess you really never lose skills like this. I  want this done so bad, because it is so gorgeous, that I see myself working on it a lot more in the future.

And then of course there are my paintings, which are turning out spectacular as well (sorry if I seem boastful today, but I really am proud of my work!). My current one is a ball under glass, and I am going to flip this  painting over (so the ball is in the top corner) and have some ropes and such falling off it to the ground. I really do think I have found my calling with these paintings. Between my oils and these studies, I just can't see myself doing anything else for a long time.

Why I keep forgetting to use my real camera is a mystery, so for now you are stuck with a phone photo that does no justice. 

I hope everyone is having a great week. I love to hear your comments and feedback, as always. Any crits on my work is always appreciated :) If you need me I will be at the cutest coffee/book shop ever, knitting like a fool.

PS : Max likes my hobbies too: He sat on my drying cardigan AND my spindle the other day. Silly kitty!
