A Wedding Ring Pillow

I'm extremely under-the-weather today, so I'm just posting a picture of a finished project for you.  This is the pillow that Johann will carry as the ring bearer in Cori and Avery's wedding this May.  It is 100% silk, and oh so soft.  Silk is a lovely thing to knit with if you haven't already.  I bought mine at Blue Moon Fiber Arts .   They call it "Luscious Silk" and I would have to agree.  It is luscious.  The pattern is from this book

which has lots of cute patterns.  I don't usually buy knitting books, I typically buy a pattern at a time, or I check out the book from the library.  However, I knew I was going to make at least 4 or 5 things in this book, so it made sense to just buy it.

and now - as for the rest of my day...

I'll be laying in my bed, moaning incoherently, and wishing for it to be tomorrow.
