1. I had to set aside the mindless knitting because it was just too dang boring.
2. So I made a hat for myself instead. Much pie was had.
3. The aforementioned pie would be a big ol' helping of the humble variety for this rather cocky knitter. For the first time in years, I actually had laddering issues.
4. Much embarrassment was had by me.
5. I fixed the problem and happily shoved it on my head where it's pretty much remained.
6. Yes, my necklace is an octopus. Yes, I made it myself.
And yes, I'd be willing to make a couple at some point to sell.
7. Continuing with the octopus theme, I made myself a new ring.
8. I've also made two new Henry pieces.
9. The one Christmas present I knit this year was a cabled dice bag for John.
My own pattern, of course. I'm not sure if I'll release it or not since it involved crocheting a bottom.
10. I've been diving back into the journal making territory for a Particular Purpose.
11. No, I'm not telling you yet.
12. Sometimes I make something really adorable and small from scraps.
13. And then I make something smaller than that.
14. I've really missed getting to stretch my creative muscles and work on something other than big knitting projects.
15. Of course I have a new big project on my needles.
Lace weight circular shawl pattern using worsted weight yarn.
16. Yes, it's going to be a blanket. The thing I swore I'd never make.
17. Malabrigo Rios in Liquidambar, in case you're wondering.
18. Yeah, the yarn looks familiar.
19. No, this was not the intended project. But I have no regrets.
20. Damn, this blog really has just been about the shawls for the last few months.
21. No cat pics this time, but have some food porn to close us out.
22. Yes, that's homemade mac and cheese with sauteed broccoli in a breadbowl.
23. Yes, I know you're jealous.
24. No, I'm not sharing.
