Still Here

It has been 3 months since I've posted, but I am still knitting and reading blogs. Getting around to the actual blogging of my own hasn't really been a top priority these days. I have finished a couple of projects since my last post.

I made Clapotis, which is now my favorite scarf.

I made a hat for my step dad (modeled by Eddie).

I finally finished my large sock monkey in time to give it to my niece for Christmas. You can ask her what the monkey says and she'll tell you, "OOOh, ooooh?" So cute!

My cousin also sent me the mug that I made while visiting her in Portland at the end of September. It's my favorite mug.

I've been working on the Lady February Sweater. I decided that I needed a sweater for myself. I have only knit one other sweater for myself, and I don't wear it all that often.

I am looking forward to Stitches West and planning on taking a couple of the one hour classes that they offer. I would really like to wear the Lady February Sweater, but I haven't even started the sleeves yet, so I don't know how likely it is that I will have it done. Also, my wrist has been acting up, so I can't knit nearly as much as I'd like to.

That's it for now. I'll try to keep up with the posting.
