First off, the Junior High Eyeshadow socks were finished during vacation week.
Pattern: Basic toe-up, double wrapped sockinette automatic heel with EZ's sewn bind-off. 
Well-worn Dansko shoes.
I've heard that German knitters call this a "boomerang" heel. It's knit back and forth. How cute is that?
Green Tea - Lotus Blossom Tank
Great pattern. The sleeves roll a bit for me, even after the garter edging. I've been thinking about picking up the edges and knitting a short-row sleeve cap.
Pattern: Lotus Blossom, Interweave Knits Summer 2006
Yarn: Cotton Patine, 8 skeins
Modifications: Added an extra 2", knit one size smaller for bodice.
Finished June 2007
Rosedale
Great pattern, except for the horrible collar. Blocking is a necessity here! It still needs a zipper.
Pattern: Rosedale at knitty.com
Yarn: Noro Kureyon and Kathmandu Aran (black)
Modifications: Intarsia on both sides, not on front. Created thicker stripes on front of Cardigan.
Finished: December 2006

Looks like you also did a superb job with the noro and the stripes.
Love your socks as well, sometimes there is nothing so satisfying as a nice pair of stockinette socks.
The short row heel is new to German patterns, having only shown up in the last couple of years.
US influences the continent I guess!
