Year of Projects--Week 2

Time for an update on my Year of Projects list. I am quite surprised that I actually have something to report!

First off the list is the item I made for a yarn swap I am in, a small pouch\bag. I wish I could have done more but given the limited knitting time I have, I kept it small. I have had this pattern from Lion Brand for awhile and decided now was time to try it! Used RedHeart and Vanna's, sz 6 needles. Made a few modifications...

I finally finished the Hawkeye scarf! I am very happy as I wanted this done before September, not too shabby! I used Cascade Superwash, Black and Daffodil, sz 7 or 8 needles I believe. LOVE it! It's very warm! Haven't been able to get a pic yet, but you can look at previous posts and just imagine that, but longer :) Hope it's recipient enjoys it!

And currently otn (on the needles) is the owlie sack, one of many baby gift items I will be knitting this year! I am about halfway through the owls and then it is many, many rows of stockinette! This needs to be done by November...off to a good start!

Come back next week!

  9. Owlie sack looks good! Can't wait to see the finished project. I did an owl baby outfit for a friend. The sack was crochet with a hat with ears and tufts. Super cute. Love owls.
