8 down... many more to go...

So, I started Weight Watchers about 3 weeks ago. So far, its been a huge success for me. As of today I'm down 8 pounds, which may not be much in some eyes, but when you've struggled with your weight at much as I have its quite an accomplishment!
On the knitting front its been a bit slow after plowing through the Stephen West mystery knit... Earth and Sky. I found it a bit of a pain to knit with all the color changes, but now that it's finished I love it!
 
I'm working on a stripe study in lime green and brown and focusing on getting my mystery Halloween project finished for my swap partner. There are also two meandering vines scarves on the needles.... and socks for Dad... and a hitchhiker for me. So as usual there is plenty for me to be working on.
Last night I decided to cast for the beekeeper's quilt. I did finish my first hexipuff and I do think I will like the project. It will be a long term project to use up left over sock yarn like my linen stitch scarf. I think I need another pair of size 4 Addis though as the join on my click set is a bit annoying for this small knit.
