So I don't know how well you can see the "glitter" from the picture, but that's Lion Brand Glitterspun in silver, and it finally came yesterday. I ordered 5 balls hoping that would be enough to make both the fingerless gloves and the infinity scarf and now that I've worked a few rows of the gloves I think I'll be fine. They are going to be bulkier than what the pattern calls for but I honestly couldn't find a better yarn that fit what my friend wanted. I'm using a G hook. I think I'll be fine.
These are a couple of pictures of Cheeto - he'd hopped up on the couch and, upon discovering that the box the Glitterspun had come in was empty, proceeded to cram himself into it. He's not a HUGE cat, but he is full-grown and he just barely fits. As you can see. He probably spent a good hour there, in the box, next to me while I started the gloves. It was too cute to not snap a couple of pictures.

These are the markers I got from my swap partner on Ravelry. Aren't they fun? I especially like the two in the middle :)
So now that I've found the *perfect* shawl pattern, I just have to re-swatch to see if the yarn I originally bought will work for it. If not, I guess I'll have to find something else. In the mean time I've started stash-busting, and I may have mentioned this in my previous post, but I've completed 3 hats so far. I'm going to be at this for a while - I have plenty of WW to work with, as you can see by the picture of my stash below. The pattern I'm using works up in 1.5 - 2 hours and it's very rewarding to complete a project in such a short time span.
Good times. It's a good thing I love to crochet. XD
