Project Pictures
An update on the broken projects:
- Natalya mitts are done and I wear them. They are nice, soft and warm. But I wish I made the wrist cuff area a bit shorter and on smaller needles so they wouldn't slip off like they do. I want to make another pair of fingerless mitts with sock-weight yarn for warmth without bulk for only slightly cold days.
- Wyvern sock has been fixed and *gasp* finished! I'll cast on for the 2nd one early this week.
- I frogged the too-long bit of the orange/pink baby vest and am almost done re-knitting it. This should be quick to finish now.
- River stole and Manos cardigan are still in the ignore pile but the Manos is next on the fix list after I'm done with the vest.
I'm trying to think of what I should be knitting next, as my next big project besides the 4 pairs of socks I have the yarn for. I need to find a nice, easy project for my knitting weekend in April too. That needs to be simple and easy for social knitting. Since I'll be taking that intensive 6-hour class I'll want something on biggish needles too. Maybe I'll do a top-down raglan on size 10s or a felted bag.
So I think that means that next-up on the new project list will have to be Mariah. Have pretty yarn, must start.
And on to the pictures
First up is the River stole WIP:
Next, the sweater and socks for baby Hannah, who was born in January:
And 2 pics of the bag I made for my mom long, long ago:
I still need a pic of Miss Rogue and Kalen's new hat. I'm thinking the Natalya mitts won't photograph well because the yarn is a green so dark it's almost black.
