Tons of knitting and crocheting



Everyone was very pleased with their knitted gifts. I made a scarf for Steve, hat for Craig, booties for Anne, and legwarmers for Catherine. I am so happy to be the recipient of a whole set of Knit Picks Harmony interchangeable wood knitting needles. So what am I doing now? I'm crocheting like crazy! I've got these two afghans that I'm working on to give the girls as graduation presents this year. Plus, I just had to crochet a scarf pattern that I saw in the winter Interweave Crochet magazine. I'm even using the recommended yarn. It is SWTC's Karaoke in a fabulous multicolor blend of rusts, golds, and blues. I also got some curry-yellow chunky wool blend yarn for a baby blanket. I've probably got a year's worth of projects queued up. And I can't stop buying yarn. The picture is of my latest project, the Mitered Scarf.
