Cars, underpants, spinning wheels....

Went to a car show this weekend.

Now what would you do if you were me? Yup! I found out who this belonged to I did! Turns out she is one of the judges at the car show! She was kinda busy so I didn't take up much of her time.

I did some knitting too this weekend. I finished a quarter of the Alpine Shrug. I can't help but think that this looks like Giant Underpants.....

I sure hope when I get the other 3 parts of this done it will look a little better....

Oh and you know what it means that it is now June right? My new sock:

Love that post title... yup, they do look a bit like bikinis, with a lovely leaf codpiece (or would it be cod cover??)

Heh. Before I saw that you said that it looks like giant underpants, I was going to comment and ask why you were making a giant jock strap..
