It's not even Christmas Eve and here I am finishing gifts.
1. Hat: This one worked up so fast it leapt right over WIP Wednesday and landed here. The pattern is Alex Tinsley's Catacombs which makes a nice warm beanie with a hint of slouch.
2. Mitts: Another quick knit. This is Susan Lawrence's Ragtop, a warm mitt with a fold over cuff at the top. I modified it to use the stitch patterns from Catacombs.
3. Potholders: The companions for the green ones. Topflappen pattern. Highly recommended for a cute quick gift or for your own kitchen update.
One more gift to go and then it's back to sweaters and socks for the long haul.
Take a look at Tami's Amis to see what other projects were finished this week.
Many things have come off the hooks and needles in the last couple of weeks in a holiday frenzy. Here are some of them:
1. Vertiginous (San Juan Bautista Shawl KAL)
Interesting construction and a nice birthday gift for my sister.
2. Erica (Woolly Wormhead Mystery KAL Hat)
This is a wonderful hat; be sure to check out the many finished hats on ravelry to see how cute the version with the peaked brim is.
4. Beetle Hill (Infinity Scarf)
Gift for my niece, it is a chunky version of the Fisher Hill Cowl I made for myself. I used two yarns held together, a worsted weight plus a sock yarn.
Now go on over to Tami's Amis and see what else has come off the hooks and needles this week.
