Scarves, scarves, and more scarves

For the past 2 months I went a little over board and knitted up too many scarves. I would pick out 2-3 different knids of yarn and a pair of 15's and put on a audio book and just sit back and knit till I ran out of yarn. This got rid of alot of unused yarn to make room for more. I always would buy novalty yarns and never use them until I thought about making them into scarves. Well my stash started to twindle and now I am scarf full now for a while. I made more not pictured that were given away to friends and family.

Love2KnitDishcloths xmas exchange

I was blown over at my exchange I got from my partner. This scarf must have taken forever. It is at least 5 foot long and 10 inches wide cable bead pattern. I just love it. She also gave my some chocolates, yarn, and sented candles.

Jokers Wild Bean

I got this little Jokers hat for my ferrets for xmas and had to put it on my Bean and take this embarrasing picture of him. He looks silly in it.

My first sock knitted

I learned how to knit about 3 years ago just so I could knit me a pair of socks. Well 3 years and 100 knitted project later I finally sat down and knitted my first sock a couple of weeks ago. The second one is on the needles yet. I used the "Dorm Room" sock pattern with Encore worsted weight yarn. I think I did pretty good on it. Now to sit my self down and get the other one done so I can accually wear them before summer hits.

xmas vacation crochet project

Wow!!! I can not believe I crochet a blanket. I am a lousy crocheter. I have the hardest time understanding the patterns. I had thrown down the crochet hook for 3 years and took up knitting. Finally I got the nerve up and started crocheting again. I got help from one of my knitting/crochet groups 'Crafters Haven' and the bug bit. I seen this pattern in Herrshners and bought it. I didn't use the yarn recommended for the blanket, I used instead James G. Brett yarn in chunky marble. I am going to submit this bl;anket in for the 2009 county fair. Imagine a blue ribbon on it, I already am.
