A Year of Projects Update - week 18

Wow, this week has flown by.  I have got a reasonable amount done.

I have a few FO's this week!

I completed the Christmas crackers that I wrote about here.

I am going to make a couple more as presents.

I also finished my first Christmas present this week - one of Sew Sweet Violet - wondrous washmitts.  Only another six to go!

And I also sewed myself a skirt, but I didn't photograph it - I shall for next week. 

Otherwise, I cast on anx have made great progress on Saknes for the latest Pompom magazine. 

I  am really hoping to get to the joining the back and two fronts today (I only have half of ond front to go).  I am using Malabrigo rios in Frank Ochre.

I have yet to cast on my Christmas socks!  But maybe this week...  we will see, I am back to school, so will not have the time really.

Anyway, hope everyone has a great week.

  2. You really did do a lot this week. The crackers are so cute and will make sweet gifts. The wash mitt will also make a great gift for Christmas. Sakness is a super cute pattern. Like the color you have chosen for it too.

  5. Your crackers are BRILLIANT!! Family fun for years to come. I also really love the bath mitts, they look very useful. Easier to clean than a loofah, easier to secure for scrubbing than a washcloth!

    And the Frank Ochre colorway makes my heart sing... that is going to be one beautiful sweater!
