Caped Crusader

The cape is complete! Well, mostly. I need to add two more buttons, but other than that, it's el fin. Whatcha think?

New show

There is a new show on PBS called "Knit and Crochet Today." It's been coming on at 4:30 every morning.

Finish line!

Now all we need is the baby! ; )

If you can't be with the one you love...

...love the one you're with.

I'm waiting on some needles to start my Cotton Chenille Baby Blanket, so in the meantime, I'm working on the Daphne Baby Cape from Knit 2 Together. It's about 10 inches long and 51 inches wide at this point. I still have 7 more inches to go, not including the hood. We'll see how far I get before I have to abandon it (I have to get that blanket done first).
Happy knitting everyone!
; )

Prayer shawl progress

since everyone's been posting the progress of their knitting, I thought I would share as well. I have finished my first prayer shawl (except the fringe). I have the second one half done, I'm trying to get it finished by this Sunday so I can turn them in.

Blanket Progress

Here are the blankets Clayton and I are working on. We are looking at a finish date of ????????????

Projects for the confined

Here are two more small projects I knitted in the past few days. One is an almost complete baby hat, made from Lion Brand Landscapes (I still need to add the earflaps).
The second is a gaiter made from *the* softest 100% merino wool EVER - Malabrigo. I LOVE it and can't wait to begin a baby blanket, but first I need to get gauge. : (

Well begun is half done....

Second done, third begun. . .

I've finished my second Harry Potter scarf for myself and I have started on the third one for my friend, Andi, I have told her it will be a little while.

Baby Sweaters!

I'm working on some new sweaters for my new baby! I'll post some pictures soon.

Later gators!

New Project

I started a new blanket. It is a diagonal pattern with lots of yarn overs. I'm using Sugar 'N Cream yarn. We'll see how many months this one takes...

Does anyone still look at this blog?

Finished! In the knick of time.

Lily's blanket is now finished. How are your blankets coming?

A Work of Art

I know this isn't a knitting project, but we seemed to have hit a dry spell.

I thought I'd add something else homemade and beautiful.

The extreme dropped stitch

I found a mistake long, long after I made it. I couldn't handle a mistake in Lily's blanket, so I fixed it. This is what it looked like. But now it's all better.

How's the blanket progress going????

Knitting in the new year

Yep, I spent new years eve, and into the wee hours of the morning new years day knitting (finally went to bed at 3am). I finished yet another washrag and a cute little scrubby to go with it. I also did some work on my 2nd harry potter scarf in Hufflepuff colors (and have a request for one in Gryffindor colors).

Not-So-Skinny Scarf

This started off as a "Skinny Scarf" as detailed in "Knit Scarves!"
When completed, it turned out not to be so skinny. Oh well, 'tis life!

A Trio of Hats

Three hats for my nieces and nephew.
