Penguins and socks

Here is the 'quilt show' sock yarn and it's first finished sock of the 'mens pair' that I have been working on this week. Casting on wednesday and then done on saturday is pretty good timewise for a sock now. I loved this opal yarn. The color is nice, subtle and looks great and it's going to be nice and warm since it's a little thicker than most yarns I've been knitting with. Now to cast on for the second one.
In my quest to send out christmas cards I've added another in my extremely limited series. I like these singing penquins. What is it about penquins that make you laugh. They do need a good wash and press before they're mounted and ready for mailing. I'm enjoying the break from knitting. So many projects calling my hands to work on them.
