Happy Holidays
How many days until Christmas? Less than a week, 5 days to be exact. This month sure has flown by. I couldn't believe that my last post was on November 13th. I've been busy with working for Weight Watchers (my part time job) and my full time job. We just went through our year-end process which sucked up about 8 hours of my extra time per week. I am definitely going to miss the overtime pay.
On the knitting front, where to begin. I guess I could give you a listing of projects that are on my needles. I may end up shocking myself here.
1. Lady Eleanore in the lovely Sapphire Magenta Malabrigo. I should take a picture of her progress. I learned how to knit her at a class at Fiddleheads.
2. Midwest Moonlight scarf in a lovely Debbie Bliss Cashmerino. A gorgeous wine color.
3. A scarf done in Frog Tree, in a lovely purple colorway.
Not too bad if I say so myself. Only 3 WIPs.
From what I can remember, I haven't had too many finished projects but they are definitely worth mentioning and maybe worthy of a picture later. First, I did finish a pair of socks. Although....they are not the perfect match for one another. The first one, I finished was done in Austerman's Step. Done in toe-up. The other sock is done in Lorna's Laces. I'll have to post the name later. Last night, I ended up finishing knitting up a washcloth.
I have decided that I am going to start my Christmas knitting for next year now. This year for Christmas, I am going to give each of my aunts (there's only 2) 2 washcloths and a bottle of dishwashing liquid. My brother is going to get the same along with my dad. My dad is kind of funny, he told me that I didn't have to get him anything, well technically I didn't get him anything, I made him something.
Last Saturday, I attended another class at Fiddleheads to learn other methods for casting on and binding off. That was a very big help.
Look for more pictures to be posted later.
