My husbands' slippers are one, and wrapped and ready for Christmas.They have been done for a few days, just haven't posted about them til now. I also started a pair of Elf Slippers, for Eon. I really wanted to knit the Elf Shoes, but I could not wrap my brain around them for some reason. Having real scatterbrain issues right now. So unless it is simple enough for a brain dead knitter (like me)... Yesterday I (almost) finished two Snowman Kisses Tic-Tac Holders (?); for stocking stuffers for the boys. I am making a Grinch Pills one for my husband. I am having a hard time finding any green Tic Tacs, though.. :/ I found some light green ones yesterday (but I didn't buy them). |
Here is a hat/scarf/gloves set ready to go to Pine Ridge for the Elders for CFAC. I had some Red Heart Soft left from my Mom's bag; so I did the hat. (Just like mine- last picture of that post. Except next time I will use a bigger sized hook, and do the extra rows like I did for mine- this hat is a litttle bit tight.) Then I tried to find orange gloves to go with it. All I could find were brown ones with an orange bow. So I got those. Then I saw a scarf that my SIL liked in a picture of two little girls on facebook. They both had scarves on, grey and off white. I loved their scarves and sat there trying to figure out how she made them. Well, I don't know if this is how she did it, but this is what I came up with. :P I started with the orange until I ran out. Then I did tan. Then since the gloves are brown and orange, I did the brown. This is how I did the scarf. Pretty basic. H hook Worsted weight yarn Chained 36 (?) Dc in fourth chain from hook and in each chain across. Ch 3 turn. Row 2: Dc in BLO in each dc across. Ch 3, turn. Repeat row 2 until your scarf is long enough. I used a smaller weight worsted weight for this one, so I might chain less for regular worsted weight. I don't know. It measures eight inches across, exactly. This was my "Carpool Project"; while I sat in car pool waiting for Eon. I got SO sick of it, but... Now I'm going to start another one. LOL In grey and Aran Fleck (or mayble in Buff Fleck). Like the original ones I saw. :D |
