Project Update!

Wow, I haven't done a project update in a long time.
So, here goes -

Here is a "cup sweater" I made for a friend -



The last fingerless mitts of the season. I made these for the daughter and she loved them!!! The first thing she said was "I love these colors!". The yarn was really gorgeous. I don't know if you can tell but there are little sparklies throughout. -



And this is what they are used for -

This is a hat for myself I am working on out of Alpaca yarn -

And this, I will let you think about for a while. I will tell you what it is next time.

Project update

I am almost finished with my hoodie sweater vest.
Here I am doing my least favorite thing - sewing it up -
-
And  have started the armhole edging -
 
I have also finished the daughter's yoga socks -





And I have started this gorgeous hat with this gorgeous yarn for my niece! -

The yarn is 70% undyed baby alpacas (no baby alpacas were killed for this yarn, at least I hope not!) 
and 30% undyed Merino wool - it is so soft and gorgeous! I love it!

Here is whjat the hat will look like when finished (only prettier) -

Get the free pattern from Ravelry - HERE

Projects (X4) update

My zipper sweater vest -

Back - done, Both fronts - done, now working on the hood.
Very nice pattern, easy to follow.



Just started Yoga socks for the daughter - Love this yarn! If it looks sparkly - it is!!!!



This is the pattern link - HERE
This is what they will look like when they are done -

Also just started an earflap hat, its so fluffy!!!!!! (what movie is that from?)

Here is the pattern - HERE
And this is what it will look like (only mine will be fluffier) -

And this is my pride and joy!
I told the hubs I wanted to knit an iPod purse so I can carry my iPod around my neck when listening to audio books and running around the house. I found a couple that I kinda liked but none perfect.
So once again - I made my own pattern! And yes I will post the pattern on here sometime in the next month. This one is more complicated so will be harder to write up.

 I put a pocket on the back for the earbuds! Gotta have those with you!
