I know I have been very quiet the past few days. You see – I had gotten a very bad cold, and I am still recovering. I have not been knitting, sadly. I have been sleeping a lot lately. Fortunately I do have some updates for you.
I finished the cowl for my mom!
I really like it, but I did panic that I would not have enough yarn and finished a little too early. I have a better picture of the cowl up in action- I’ll have to post that later.
My friend Becca came to visit me this weekend, and I sent her home with a new hat!
I made this hat for a Christmas present like two years ago, but it was never gifted. Maybe I’ll make another like it. It was super fun to make and it’s cute!
I’ve made very little progress on my sock.
I’ve got about 4 inches, and I need 7 inches before I start the heel. I haven’t been into knitting them. This doesn’t bode well for my Christmas gifts!
Lovely cowl and sock process! It’s nice that the lilac hat found a home! Is it the one with swirly cables?
Was Becca’s hat knit from a pattern? It looks interesting but it’s hard to see in the picture.
