Finished LACECAP from KNITTY! A friend who has lost hair due to Chemo but wanted a light hat for summer asked for it. I made it in HABU silk yarn and it turned out great. She liked it so much I got a big hug today when she put it on........ softer than it looks. 

Turned out pretty nicely.........gave it to her today and she liked it!

My footprint photographed next to the little hole in the hail I dug for comparison..... 

I made the BESOTTED SCARF from helloyarn.com. I also made a coordinating hat because I had some leftover. For the hat I just made a band of the cables to fit my head and then picked up stitches and knit like the Kittyville hat from the fist Stitch N' Bitch book. Easy peasy! LOVE the Besotted scarf!!!! 

Hard to see the cables...... Yes, it is the besotted scarf

My hand makes a poor substitute for a dog 

Dog sweater (self designed) from the bottom. Looks kinda like a sideways face, no? 

Enter: the dog sweater. Technically, this is the 2nd one that I've made, and for the same dog. My boss has an adorable dog that actually seems to enjoy wearing sweaters. And yes, that is a little knit bow-tie. What can I say, she asked me to make it..... 

January's project is long done. Sorry I suck so bad that I didn't get the picture up until almost the END of February... 

How awesome is this little bar??
I got it from: http://www.unlikelywords.com/html-morsels/

The bar above shows my progress on my first pair of socks in 2006

Here is the FINISHED Diamond and Webs (I think that's the right name) Shawl from Vogue (I think it was Fall 05 or Winter 05, am too lazy to get up and make sure). This was truly my first FO of 2006, but I just now got around to putting it up. This day was the day I brought it to work to give it to my co-worker.....and the day after another friend had said "Will you make me one?" What can you say to that except "Of course?" Below are close-ups so you can see what this actually looks like. Let me know what you think! 

The whole shebang-a-bang stretched out on my desk at work

I made the Kittyville hat from Stitch-N-Bitch but gave it bear ears...and YES, those are my Initials clumsily embroidered on the back as if I were 5 years old.

SCRAP SCARF!!!!!! Made from Two strands held together of whatever I could find in my stash .... mostly acryllic, some mohair, some wool, but mostly acryllic. 

Wool-ease doing what it does best....a nice thick scarf. Made this one for the Fiance who never wears anything knitted. Good thing I show my knitter - pride by wearing a scarf everyday! 

I bought the yarn for this scarf because it was pretty and the woman at the yarn store implied I couldn't afford it.....maybe she knows my secret weakness... One skien. Size 15's and Seed Stitch. Kinda looks like Easter Vomit though..... 

Gotta love cheap Chennille....Lion-Brand. Still nice after being worn in the rain for a week! 

Finished LOOOOOOONG scarf!
