New Year, More Projects

I've got to be better at this blogging thing, but Ravelry is so much fun and it just keeps getting better!

I wasn't going to knit anything for Christmas presents, because I'm not sure if the recipients will really use them or are to their taste, but I can't stop myself. These were fun and easy though.


Project: Mosaic Mitts
Source: Interweave Knits Holiday 2007
Yarn: Lion Brand Wool-Ease in Navy, Gray, & Plymouth Encore Worsted in Wine
Needles: US 4
Started: 11/7/07
Finished: 11/21/07
Comments: Easy, fun pattern. I used leftovers and plan to make some for myself out of leftover Malabrigo.





Project: Airy Scarf
Source: Last Minute Knitted Gifts
Yarn: Rowan Kidsilk Haze in Lord/593 & Fondant/630
Needles: US 10
Started: 11/22/07, 12/3/07 & 12/27/07
Finished: 12/3/07, 12/7/07 & 1/2/08
Comments: Very fast & easy. You can get 2 scarves from one skein. I got this book specifically for this pattern and I think the book is going to be a great resource.
