Happy Birthday, Jackie!!

This is the scarf that I made for Darrin's sister, Jackie. She loved her mom's, so I decided that this was going to be her birthday present. It is made from Lion Brand Fun Fur.

Happy Birthday, Maureen

This is the scarf that I gave to Darrin's mom for her birthday on February 26th. Sorry, readers, I kinda fell a little behind with things since the move. So, this is the scarf that I made out of Lion Brand Fun Fur for Maureen.

EEEK!!! Almost a month!!!

I can't believe that it has been almost a month since I last posted!! Well, I finished my mom's birthday poncho.

Here it is before I joined the 2 sections

...and here it is all together.

I made a scarf for the secretary at my church that was retiring

I also made a bunch of stitch markers.

Now, back to work on the prayer shawl for my mom's second cousin!!

Finally!!!

I finally got all of the finished projects photographed and the WIP's photographed as well. Feels better to get that done!

This is the green afghan...

...and here is the coral shawl...

...and here are the WIP's, the poncho, the hat and the yarn for the scarf...

And to update where things are since I photographed these items yesterday - green afghan is shipped and on its way to Pennsylvania, coral shawl is sitting at home (after all, I made it for myself), purple poncho for mom hasn't progressed yet, red hat for boyfriend is now on DPN's and working on the on the decreases, the yarn for the scarf for the boyfriend is now cast on and about 10 rows into it. When I get more done or started or photographed again, I will post.

Yet another day

The shawl is almost done. I got quite a bit of it done this morning before work. I hope to finish it tonight. I always set goals that are way out of reach. There is about 5 inches left on it. If I don't finish it tonight then I will finish it tomorrow at knit night.

I purchased the yarn today to make Andrew a hat for Valentine's Day. I got the Patons Merino Wool in Burgandy. I am going to make a hat pattern from the book "Never Knit Your Man a Sweater Unless You've Got the Ring!". It should be pretty easy and quick to knit up. I also want to make him a scarf from the same book. I guess I will have to wait and see how ambitious I get for that one!!

I still have my mom's poncho to finish by the end of March. I hope I get it done. If not, she will be getting yet another scarf.

Almost time to leave work. I will try to update tomorrow!
