Here’s the fingerless gloves that I made for myself this week. As I posted before Christmas, I’ve just discovered how fun they are to make and wear. I made 4 pairs so far including these for myself. The other 3 pairs were finished in record time and were gifted to friends that were not expecting… Continue reading Knitting Fingerless Gloves

May everyone have a wonderful day. Here’s a glimpse of my tree and the decorations in front of my window.

Here’s two different fingerless gloves that I knit up yesterday. I really wish I had started these sooner as they will make great gifts for several of my friends. Time is such an issue for me. I just don’t have enough time between the idea for a project and the due date for the finished… Continue reading Wish I’d Started Knitting these Sooner

With the days shorter and… Continue reading Change of Season Knitting

As the end of October gets closer, it’s time for me to think about holidays. This year, I have very little stockpiled as I’ve given away a lot throughout the year.

I finally finished my shrug and I’m really pleased with it. This was the simplest of projects. Plain ribbing through out and two seams yet it fits beautifully.
