the crobi(k)nitter

The first snow in Baltimore! Winter feels so fresh to me. I love it.

Some works-in-progress and FOs. The first FO was a scarf I made for Charles out of Malabrigo. It's a very pretty mustard/sunrise color, but I have yet to take a picture. He insisted on wearing it right away, so there goes the Christmas surprise. I therefore started a new project with the intent of making it a complete surprise, from yarn to color to purpose. Wouldn't you know it though? I said "See, this is why I'm not working on the sock..." when he kept walking in on me without announcing himself. So my big impulsive mouth gave it away. But I still have yarn and color working for me. :)

I'm still working on my socks with the Eye-of-Partridge heel. Since those are for me , they will remain on the back burner.


I did, however, finish some wristwarmers, made out of Malabrigo as well, but a color I picked for me - pretty pink.


I started a Heroes illusion scarf (Ravelry link), made by gradskoolknitter in Ravelry. I'm a test knitter and have to finish this baby!


And I still have to finish the Brea bag that I'm making for Leslie. My sister-in-law wants one as well. The first side took me about 4 hours, so the next should be easier because I'm more familiar with cables than I was when I started.


I'm also working on a pink garter-stitch poncho for my niece and ... well. That's enough, isn't it?
