Little Dude cape

Okay using Holiday Dog Capelet by Kathy North from Ravelry as a base I'm making Dart a "little dude" cape. I'm uncertain if this is going to count as me designing my own pattern thus I'm putting the source listed above.

This is going to also be my first intarsia project too.

I'm using red heart designer sport yarn (it's for a dog I'm not going to break out and get any super wash stuff)

I'm using red (3901) and yellow (3215) colors
I cast on 100 stitches
st st 8 rows
bo 20 sts k to end of row
bo 20 sts p to end of row
bo 5 sts k to end of row
bo 5 sts p to end of row
st st 4 rows
(that's it for now)

Ruth Sorensen Fulled Slippers

Okay I've worked on the first of a pair of fulled slippers. The first one is in the washing machine fulling.

Some thoughts on it at this time.
Use circs next time. for a grown up slipper casting on 80 stitches is a wicked large amount.
I have some concerns about having enough yarn but I think I'll survive it called for 200 grams but I'm not sure if that's two 200 gram balls or just the total of two balls has to be equal to or greater than 200 grams. guess I'll find out won't I.
