Long time no post - I finished Rocky Coast, but the sleeves came out freakishly small, even after blocking, so I have to reknit those or find someone with very skinny arms to give it to!
Here is my latest project - Mary Jane, designed by the Zephyr Style gals.
I'm using Madelinetosh Tosh TK in "Oxblood" for this and making the 32" size. Usually I'm not a big fan of puffy sleeves but they aren't too extreme, and I think they will be cute on this.

I started this the day before Thanksgiving (a few days before we went to Cancun) and separated the sleeves off on the plane trip home last Wednesday. So it's moving fairly fast, considering that I haven't been seriously knitting on it. I gave up on finishing the Sampler Afghan before Christmas, but I have all of it knit and about 75% of it sewn together. There's a huge border that has to be done around the entire blanket, though, and it's become a very un-portable project, so I can't really work on it much.
So cool to see your knitting again! Mary Jane is looking great so far. That's too bad about Rocky Coast; I hope you can fix it.
