A little knitting update










I finished my fingerless mitts. I used this pattern except I made the cuffs longer before starting the pattern mostly because I didn't read the pattern correctly lol. They actually have a left and right hand and they fit so well. They are both made from the same skein of RedHeart Stripes Fruity Stripes.




American Flag scarf made with RedHeart Super Saver Americana no pattern



Menta & Liquirizia Shawl made with hand dyed mini skeins



Antler cardigan made using Mary Maxim sport weight yarn



Robbie's socks - I use this pattern but I just knit them vanilla.

Show & Tell Christmas stocking projects





These are the 7 plus my two stocking blocks from the mystery box of fabric. My blocks are the bottom left and top right stockings.


The blocks are so quick and easy to make I made another set of 9 thinking I would make another wall hanging. Then I changed my mind. No surprise there, right? I made 5 left facing and 4 right facing blocks. The 4 right facing have green cuffs and I turned them into a mini quilt/wall hanging.


I took 4 of the left facing stockings which all have a red cuff and made an alternating table runner. This way no matter what side you sit on you can have stockings that are facing the correct way.


I did save one of the left facing stockings to make into a pillow cover. This one is my favorite so that's why I chose this one.

I sketched out the block design and you can find it here.  Check back next week because I found another fun design to make.
