Vanessa's 2008 Christmas present (Yeah, I'm a bit behind.)
Thea's 2008 Christmas present. Well, not technically, but she did want one.
This is a scarf for Thea. I had a hard time parting with it. I had some really soft, fine yarn that was knitting very slowly by itself for a scarf, so I stopped that project and combined the yarn with another for this scarf. It was my first two-yarn project, and it was luxuriously soft. I wanted to keep it for me.
This is the scarf I did for my mom. It was a work in patterns, and it took a really, really long time to complete (I'm guessing around 40 hours; the other grown-up scarves take around 8-10). Still, I learned a lot by making it, and I think it turned out very beautifully. She loves it and said it's very warm.
This is the one I did for my grandma. Also very, very soft. She loves purple, too.
I wound up keeping this one for myself. It's another two-yarn project. This time, I used some leftover yarn from the baby blanket for Zoey and some purple fuzzy yarn. The result was a very warm, chunky scarf. I like it very much.
I also have some other things I want to take photos of but haven't yet. I'll get photos of my girls in their Christmas scarves and Audra in hers, and I'll get a photo of the heat curtain I made, too. I've been busy even though I haven't been posting.
Next on the projects list:
