Random Acts of Knitting

Last night in the car on the way home I began knitting a new project. I don't know what it will be or who it will be for, but I had no plain knitting projects in the car and I needed something I could do in the dark. So I cast on a random number of stitches (turned out to be 81) with Estelle Silk on US Size 11 needles and started knitting. We'll see what happens.
Dh's socks are closer to being done. In 1 to 1.5" I will be done the ribbing and be able to switch to stocking stitch. From there on out, it'll be quick to do.
I finished Niesha's headband and decided to crochet her some bootees for the wedding. They all looked great on her.
All other projects are still incomplete, plus I've started some socks in Alpaca on Size 1's for Katja. They're toe-up, using a bell lace pattern, and I believe I'll do a short row heel.
Oh, I also made a shawl for the wedding. I made it triangular so that I could cast off whenever I ran out of time, which is exactly what I did. I plan to add on to it though.
