I seem to have made little progress this week compared to last, but that is because I have been completely obsessed with one project!
FO's
I do have one of these - the next hat. I am doing these for the whole family and teachers, so I have 7 now to make as presents and this is the first.
I have made a little progress on both pairs of socks, but not a lot.
This is the project that has taken my time this week. I cast on Miranda by Josee Paquin. I am loving it, the pattern is lovely and the yarn is just delightful. It is Madelinetosh pashmina worsted in baltic and is fantastic to knit with.
Acquisitions
No knitting related acquisitions this week (well not directly). I purchased some peanut hottie (a peanut butter hot chocolate drink) that I tried this morning and it is gorgeous. I also took delivery of some Christmas teas from the English Tea Shop. I have tried 3 of them and they are all splendid so far (I have tried the gingerbread, Christmas punch and apple spice).

Are you making the hats for Christmas gifts? That is a really pretty blue!!!!
ReplyDeletePashmina in Baltic -- it just doesn't get better than that. You are going to have one kick-a-- sweater!
ReplyDeleteHats make the best gifts. And I for one, don't think you can ever have too many hats. I love the sweater color. I can almost feel the softness of the yarn. Your teas sound yummylishess! (I made that word up lol)
ReplyDeleteooo....that sweater is gonna be in my queue. I love the colour.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in the yarns you used in both of these projects!
ReplyDeleteI need to check out your project page as hats are on my list for my grown up boys this year along with fingerless mitts. I love YOUR hat!
ReplyDeleteThe sweater is gorgeous!!!! Wow! I will have to remember that yarn...you go girl!
