stuff

Here's another little hat and scarf I did up for a g/f's daughter's birthday. Verrrry girly so she loved it.

Check out my first ever knitted scarf..I worked on this one bits at a time mostly at coffee breaks. I did a few goofs on it but I can live with them, LOL
I used LB Thick & Quick which I got for $4, pattern from yarnband, 10mm knitting needles, 2 skeins used. It's helping with the knitting speed and my tension is pretty decent now.

I don't think I'll ever move too much away from knitting dishclothes or scarves, but we'll see. It's definitely slower. It's nice at least knowing how to knit again so I have more options in texture and stitches of small projects.

I'm still plugging away on my Halcyon shawl out of the Sirdar Yoyo. That stuff is beautiful, but like Deneen says, it catches on any rough skin like crazy.

Sorry I've been so braindead in the writing here for the past bit, probably boring as hell too, but maybe I've dazzled you with pictures and projects instead, hehe.

I am still looking for the new BHG Simply Creative Crochet..it's so frustrating sometimes trying to find a magazine I want. I wish they'd stick to their release dates. Wish me luck....I'll leave no hook unturned. :)
