Green Fingerless Mitts Complete!

I got Katy's green fingerless mitts done and here they are. I really liked working with this yarn, it knits up really nice and has some elasticity to it.

Red Fingerless Gloves Completed!

Okay-Now I can finally publish a post about this. I had knitted these gloves for my friend Pam who lives in California as a surprise and I could not publish this until she received her gloves in the mail. Here are the pics:





Here is the link to the pattern I used:

New Project-Fingerless Mitts


Well-I am getting ready to start a new project. My daughter wants me to make her a pair of fingerless mittens. So I have decided to combine two different patterns that I found to make them for her.


They will be made out of this green bamboo wool yarn that I found. And do you see all of those double pointed needles?? A friend of mine told me how to make knitting needles myself out of dowel rods. So these 10 size 3 double pointed needles cost me about 60 cents to make.


I will post more updates as I get going on them.

Baby Hats

Here are some photos of baby hats that I made for a baby shower for two girls here at work. One of the girls was having a boy so I knitted a blue and white striped bunny hat and then one girl was having twin girls so I knitted two pink flower hats. For some reason I love knitting hats.
