Jeans closeup

I love the way the waistband fits.

And the straight legs look great from all sides.

New jeans

It has been a while since I posted here but I've been busy. Finished the gray linen feather-and-fan shawl (beautiful stitch definition - gotta take a picture), then started a pair of socks from one of those self-patterning yarns. Pretty nifty. I just finished the second sock this evening - gotta take pictures of those, too.

I needed a pair of jeans and have been frustrated with the same-old offerings from the stores. You know, the nipped-in-at-the-knee kind, that makes everybody look like they have knock knees. So I made a pair with straight legs. And the embroidery module on my machine got a little workout too. I've got a Scorpio on the right back pocket, and the water symbol on the left. I love the jeans - sooo comfortable.
