Very Fetching!

The Fetching Handwarmers went to Megan. They will keep her hands warm while she is hitting the law books. She is modeling them with a hat I made last year.

Projects Finished

Just in time for the Winter Gift Giving Holiday! Or a trip to the mountains.
Two hats, a beret, a headband/earwarmer, and a pair of handwarmers.
Which one would you like?
Or maybe you would like to try them on first.
Let me know.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Yea!

Kitty Beds Again?

Yes, there are a lot of bedless cats out there. And I do have a lot of yarn. Maybe I should go into business. Except that I give them away.

Donegal Sweater

I've been working on this sweater for some time now. I'm determined to finish it. If I had started it at the beginning of the month, it would have qualified for the NaKniSweMo (National Knit a Sweater Month). It's the sweater of 50,000 stitches. Including the ones I knit, ripped out, knit again, ripped out, knit, etc. It's knit from the top down, so all I have to finish is the ribbing on the bottom and sleeves. I just might finish by the 30th!

Three Monkeys and a Cat

As promised, sister sent a picture of her cat sharing the bed with the sock monkeys.

Scarf

On my recent British Columbia vacation I bought one ball of yarn
Really, only one ball!
What restraint!
I turned it into this lovely lace scarf. From a popular pattern in knitblogdom called "Branching Out" knit in wool/silk. Lace leaves in brown, perfect for fall.

Not a Tire Cover

My Not a Tire Cover is finished. You can see the size difference. It took three cycles in the washer as expected, but I didn't clog the drain.

Fetching Handwarmer

That's the name of this pattern found at knitty.com. Keeps your hands warm while allowing your to use the keyboard. It's modeled here by sister B. Made of machine washable cashmere blend, it will make someone a nice gift.

Kitty Bed #3

As soon as I heard that Jane had adopted two new kittens, I started this, my third kitty bed. It looks a little small, but it is for kittens after all. I was able to use yarn from my stash. I hope she and the kittens will like it.
