Works in Progress update

by ⋅ 2 Comments

Here is an update on all my WIPs!   (WIP is Work In Progress)  Last time I updated you was about one month ago.  All links are to Ravelry – I’ve shared them so you don’t have to be a member to view them, but if you are a knitter or crocheter, why aren’t you a member?

The Death Star Pillow (gift) for a friend’s son who requested it look like this right now:

The Traveler’s Mitts (gift) look exactly the same…I’m pretty sure I’m frogging them.

The Lacy Pumpkin (gift) looks like this now:

This is the 2nd one, first one was gifted to my mom.

My Rainbow Socks look like this now:

Just about time to start the heels!

The Spiral Scarf (gift) looks xactly the same but probably going to frog this too. It’s lovely yarn and pattern, but crocheting is so much faster that I’ve done 6 scraves in the last few weeks.

The Teacher Gift Blanket (gift) looks like this now:

Yep pretty much the same look, just add about 4 skeins of yarn! Only 4 more to go! 😀

And, I’ve started one other pattern – a vest for my BIL upon request for Christmas.  Had a couple of problems with it but I’m 75% done now.  Here’s a close up so I don’t ruin the surprise too much – he knows it’s coming!

LOL

A few more gifts are to be started.  I usually knit my kids hats or fingerless gloves – so I’ll probably start those soon.

This is how it starts…

…complete and utter frustration with your spot!  Yes, it’s gift knitting time so I don’t normally have this much stuff out.  And some projects are done – somewhere in there is a white bag – all gifts ready to wrap!  But I’m still struggling to work in this space.  So, Hubs, this is your only warning, things will be looking a bit different by the time you get home!
