Finished Projects for This Week!


1. Christmas Decorating? DONE!
I love seeing the house done up at Christmas... *sigh*

2. Marian Cowl by Jane Richmond? DONE!
I really enjoyed knitting this up. It is so warm and cozy. 
And because it calls for super thick yarn... it knit up in no time.
 I may have to knit up a couple more in different colours.
Love Love Love!

3. A Cowl for Mark
 When I started, I was  knitting up a hat. 
But when Mark took a look at it he thought it was a cowl. 
Which gave me the idea to turn it into a men's cowl.
I just started knitting it up a few hours ago... 
 Now... DONE! :D 
(Mark wouldn't model it for me... *pout*)
I'd say that's enough for this week. 
Time to rest up tomorrow so I can get ready
 to tackle the projects for NEXT week!

(which may or may not include the baking of some goodies)

Knitting: Moving on to... The Marian Cowl ^.^


In light of yesterday's weather development I decided that it was high time that I make the Marian cowl by JaneRichmond that I've been itching to make since last spring... I bought some Lion Brand: Wool Ease, Thick and Quick yarn in Charcoal, brought out my 12.75mm 24in circular needles and got ready to go.

I wanted to try out a few rows. So I started it late last night to see how comfortable it would be for my hands to handle knitting. I stopped after a few rows to take a few pics but kept going. I got so into it I forgot to stop. It's knitting up so fast and easy. I could have stayed up and finished it but my body was screaming for sleep so I got about 3/4 through it and put it down. Now I'm ready to finish it up!

But first... To Christmas-ize the house a bit!

Stay tuned!
