Knitting Update

Yes, I have been knitting a lot recently. Here is the proof.

Made a scarf to match the beautiful hat:

Cabled Scarf

Still haven't decided who will be the worthy recipient of these items...


Made my first pair of socks for my sweetie who picked out the yarn nearly a year ago (and told me "when you learn how to knit socks you can make me a pair with this" - and I did).

Handknitted Socks

But now I am afraid that I will forget everything I learned while making those socks, so I have immediately started another pair for me:

(have actually gotten past the heel already, but haven't taken another photo yet)

At the moment I am attempting to adapt this owl dishcloth pattern (http://www.knittingonthenet.com/patterns/clothowl.htm) into a headband... but it is not going so well. I made it far to big and I think I need a different kind of yarn. Hopefully I will have more to say on this on my next post.
