Due to my Ravelry obsession, my Blogspot has been very neglected! I forget that most of the world is not on Ravelry, so I need to update both places. If you are a fiber fanatic, go to Ravelry.com and get signed up. It is free and so much fun!
This is the Caloriemetry, pictured above. I will stick the free link in soon! It is from Knitty. Made if for my cold sister! The little hat below is a modified version of EZ's Ganomy hat. When you don't change the pattern, the wearer looks like they are wearing a dunce cap! We call it the Sven hat, because my son looks very Scandinavian when he is wearing it!
Christmas was
a lot of fun with our families. Kristen and Judy loved their Hemlock Ring blankets. Always a relief when the person whom you knit for likes what you have done! I need to start an alpaca one for my mom, but I have a few projects to finish first.
I have been busy working away on Blake's Lost Tomten Jacket. I just have to seam up the other sleeve and I will have pics up for you. It is the lost tomten because it was mostly knit while watching all seasons of Lost. A very creative, simple pattern by Elizabeth Zimmermann. Takes some tweaking since she leaves you with so much freedom with the pattern.
I just got a job at my LYS! I am so excited! I have worked 2 days so far and really love it! I have already learned so much! I can't wait to start taking the classes that they offer. A fun perk! Well, until next time,
