Fingerless Mitts and a Baby Hat

Tuesday, January 20th, 2009

I’m finally getting things done, although only the small projects.  It took me a ridiculous amount of time but I finally got Aaron’s fingerless gloves done.

Aaron's GlovesPattern: Pop Up Paws
Yarn: Rio de la Plata 3 Ply
Needles: 4 & 6’s
Size: Medium

Details: I made the gloves without the pop up, the purl ridge across the back of the hand and the thumb top. My ravelry page on them is here.

He says they are perfect at work and keep his hands warm- so apparently I did good :)



The second project I finished up is a baby hat from Luxury One Skein Wonders:

Baby HatPattern: Merino Silk Cables for Baby
Yarn: K1C2 Ambrosia
Needles: 12” #3 & #4
Size: N/A

Details: This is a fun project, the only thing I noticed that was wrong with the pattern was the decreases for the crown. My ravelry project details here. I could’ve gotten another hat out of the one skein of Ambrosia. This hat is for the Luxury One Skein Wonders Every Other Month Along at the store.

I’ve finally pulled my Central Park Hoodie back out and have started working on that again, I’d love to be able to wear it this year! I’m also working on Springtime in Philadelphia, its a really fun pattern and I really like the yarn I’m using, the Fibre Company’s Canopy Fingering. Hopefully I’ll have pics of that to show off soon. I’m hoping to make Owls by Kate Davies soon, I have some Eco Wool that will work very nicely for it.

Finally!

Well I finally got some things accomplished, not much but a few projects were finished.

The first is the baby sweater from 101 Designer One Skein Wonders. I used two skeins of Manos Silk Blend. It was a fun knit and it looks much cuter with the buttons- I haven’t taken pictures of that yet. So while this is done I’m a little worried that the sweater won’t actually fit the baby. But I will keep my fingers crossed! You can see my ravelry page for it here.

More pictures of finished items to follow!
