Right now, however, I feel the urgent need to finish this sock. There's a whole story with this one, but I will get to that in my next post:

I'm starting to get a little overwhelmed! I have some of the books you mention here, and a few other crochet sources - all together, millions of possibilities! It's hard to choose just the right thing!
Look at you go! Very cute stuff. So are your nails! :)
