Last night I finished a pair of socks I cast on for myself while in Ireland. Sassy stripes yarn (acrylic) in various hues of (what else) pink: I used a pattern in the recent edition of a knitting magazine I picked up in Ireland. The pattern includes a wrapped heel and a star toe, a bit different techinque - but I don't really like the uneveness of the toe decreases - see the way it looks like the right sock is a bit wonky...

But they are keeping my feet toasty and that's the main thing!
While in Ireland I also finished off the scarf, which was promptly gifted:
The colours are great, but I was disappointed in the yarn. It's 100% silk, with the texture (but not the price) of that cotton you use for crochet dishcloths. And I have two more balls of it, yay...
