I am glad the holidays are over. Are you?

I am a little tired of "little" projects. I need to sink my teeth into a sweater. Yeah Yeah, I have to finish Tammy, and that is my goal for January. Speaking of "little" projects. I have some things to show!

I finished Aiblhinn

It is a little shorter than I would have liked. I ran out of yarn. Oh well.
Here it is on me

purple thing

I think if I have to make another one of these I will scream

lauries neckwarmer

Now that that is done, If you haven't gone to Knit Pixie by now you better go soon! I ordered from them on Monday and received it on Thursday. I love those girls! Here is what I got

The color of this yarn is amazing. Here is what I am making with it

cowl

It is from the "Last Minute Gifts" book. I am thinking of throwing this in randomly throughout. I made up the skull chart myself.

woohoo! More neck warmers and in alpaca no less! I love it! I think Kris is right, there's no way your neck is going cold this winter!

That skull chart of yours is the bees knees. Evil!

Yum yum - that alpaca looks gorgeous!
I also got fed up with Christmas knitting gifts, so I'm working on a Butterfly cardigan made with Noro Kureyon.

I googled skull chart and found this entry and am so glad I did. Your skull chart is EXACTLY what I've been looking for! Hopefully I can share with you soon. :)
