FO - Mixology

After over a year of work and procrastinating, I have finally finished the Mixology sweater for my father in law.   Yarn used: Noro Silk Garden and Asian Trends Del Cerro, 100% Merino

I hope it fits him.  It fits me, pregnant, so it should fit him.

Hope, hope, hope.

FOs!

The knitting train continues to chug along.

I've finished knitting up with the Untastic yarn I picked up: I had to buy the Heartbreaker colourway. I call it early labour yarn because the exciting colours will probably trigger early labour when I look at them.

FO - Sugar Maple

These socks are SO soft and warm. It's like heaven on the feet. Handmaiden Special Nyoni is just awesome.  They're still drying on the blockers, but you can bet your bottom dollar that as soon as they are dry, and as soon as my feet are cold enough, that I will definitely be wearing these suckers.

A handful of FOs

Well, it's been awhile since I've posted. BUT, it's good! I have many finished objects to show off!

1. A hat for Nick made with leftover Elann Peruvian Highland
2. Christmas Ornaments made with various leftover bits of yarn
3. Cabled Capitain hat made with Noro Silk Garden Chunky
4. My first adult sized sweater made with Cascade Eco
5. Cabilrimetry made with Red Heart Soft Touch
6. Cotton Coasters made with mystery cotton yarn

Yeah, yeah. I've been lazy with posting. But at least I make with the awesome FOs! :D

Lots of FOs

Firstly, a change to the blog. I'm not really using flickr anymore because they put a limit on how many images you're allowed to have, and that's balls. I'll just provide links to all the images instead. Just click them and don't be lazy :P

Finished a few things.

Finished the baby blanket for Joe and Diana's little one, and I finished the mobile monster bunny cell phone case for Lisa.

I went to the Knitter's Frolic again yesterday. A few good deals, but last year was way better. I didn't pick up a swift like I wanted to, but I did manage to get a nice blocking kit (8 long blocking wires, 4 small ones, and 2 flexible ones, with a package of T pins) for $35. They gave me the wrong kit (the upgraded one) and I didn't notice until I got home, so that was $10 I saved.

I also got a nice bag of 5 chunky weight Noro Silk Gardens for $35, as well as a new row counter, and a nice bottle of knitted garment shampoo. Nice haul.

I'm going to pick up a swift for my birthday from Linda's on Tuesday before knitting night starts. Looking forward to it. :)
