christmass...

Yep, it's that time of the year again.

So far, i'm maybe 2/3 done with a scarf for the boyfriend's mum for christmas. I'd like to also knit a scarf for his sister. I really just want to re-make Cotton Candy, but somehow i feel like that's cheating, since i already made that pattern before for previous boyfriend's sister. :/

So, i dunno. Maybe i'll make her a purse or something. Or a scarf with a different pattern.

That's pretty much the update. Pictures ... sometime eventually.

I wish i had the cash to buy the yarn for a sweater.

Purty new things

Hey errybody that may still read this. Sorry bout an extreme lack of updates. Over winter i managed to knit two really awesome hats, some scarves, and now that brings me to the summer knitting season. I picked up the Spring/Summer Vogue knitting issue, and fell in love with the first pattern in it- for a really gorgeous beaded shell. I'm not sure if i'll do the beading or the ribbon work, but who knows? I just hope to have it done for the beach, and as this is my first really complicated/wearable item i hope it turns out at least 'pretty good'. So, here a pic of the "finished product" as in the magazine: And here's what i have thus far: The yarn the pattern calls for (and for once the one i used) is Plymouth "Fantasy Naturale" which i got 7 skeins for $33, amazing price thanks Kathy at Kathy's Kreations. I'll keep this updated as i move along, and try to get some pictures of those hats up too!
