Cat'r's Navy Grape Throw. This
was knitted over the course of
several years! I would leave it
alone for months at a time, then
work on it again. It's made of Red
Heart Light & Lofty yarn in...navy
grape colour. It's a nice soft
yarn--Teddy
likes it. It's a simple garter
stitch. I started it on big pink US
15 needles but eventually got tired
of worrying about stitches falling
off (75 stitches wide), so I
switched to some nice Crystal Palace
bamboo circular needles. Begun Sept.
2004 and completed Sept. 2007! |

Also a project worked on over a
couple years: Cat'r's Farrow Rib
Muffler (pattern in The Little
Box of Scarves). This was knit
in Bernat Berella 4 yarn, Dark
Oxford colour. Completed September
29, 2007. |

Just the beginning of a pair of
wrist warmers done in stockinette
stitch with Red Heart Soft in Embers
colour, to match a
diagonal-scarf-in-progress and a hat
yet-to-be-knitted. September 30,
2007. [EDIT Oct. 3, 2007: Bwahahaha!
I frogged it and started over again
on five DPNs! Better,
better!]
Completed set here. |

Fall Shawl, made from

Shine Sport (Orchid) and Twist
(Parrot). Completed Oct. 2007. |

Yet more crocheted wrist warmers, same
pattern
as
these. These are made from
Bernat Softee Baby, to go with a
previously knitted scarf in Moda
Dea Tutu and
crocheted hat made in Lion Brand
Chunky USA. I know the pinks don't
really match. It was the best I
could do, since all three items were
made at different times. Wrist
warmers completed October (Breast
Cancer Awareness Month) 2007. |
