I am just finishing "Nurmilintu" by Heidi Alander. My next projects will be 2 pairs of "Moonkoosa Boots" by Tiny Owl Knits - for my 2 beautiful granddaughters. <br /><br />As for fiber festivals...I would love to go to one, but there aren't any close to me.

I cast on my first pair of toe-up socks the other day, and am playing around with that for fun. The yarn is a self-striping, so I'm letting it do most of the work for me. I've got two SQs of yarn coming my way, for some lovely summer garments to keep my needles happy. I've done the only pre-planned fiber thing I do already, as Rose City Yarn Crawl happened in March.

The one that is getting the most attention from me right now, though, is a circular pi shawl I'm knitting as part of a KAL in Ravelry's Wollmeise group. It's the biggest lace project I've ever tackled, and I decided to add beads, too, to make it even more of a challenge!
