Sheila is back! Today we feature Sheila's finished vanilla toe up sock out of BMFA, and the continued progress on Wendy's Shipwreck Shawl. Wendy shows her baubles and bling from Spa including a Jessalu bag and an Enchanted Knoll Farms batt. We draw winners for the Kerrie KAL and the Lacuna giveaway at the end. Bonus Spa slideshow at the credits.

Wendy is working on:
Little Batty (new design by Wendy) in Blue Moon Fiber Arts Socks That Rock Lightweight, Rook-y color way, US6/4mm needle.

Voodoo You Love Me Doll by Susan Claudino ($5 on Rav). Wendy is reverse engineering it to save money, but you shouldn't judge the original pattern by Wendy's home-brewed version! The original is very cute.
