WIP Wednesday

I'm still slogging away on the Faded Roses blanket.  I'm about 15 squares away from the borders being done.  Then the assembly begins.

Tomorrow is the start of the Frankensock advent socks.  There's a new clue every other day between December 1-24.  The people who did the advent socks I participated in last year are not doing it this year, alas.  This sounds like it should make a good substitute.  I went digging through my leftovers and decided to base the socks on Sassy Santa:

I was able to find enough solids that go with this yarn.  Oddly, almost all of them are also sparkly with a little stellina in them.
