FO's 2007
This is the Seamless Hybrid Sweater from EZ's Knitting Without Tears that I made for TJ for Christmas 2007. It was with a tweed cone yarn from Ireland. I am quite happy with how it turned out, and he wears it quite often. More details here.
I made these mini mitts using this pattern, and attached them with mini clothespegs to a card. They can be removed to make Christmas tree ornaments.
A sock monkey for my friends little boy. I used store bought socks and a general pattern that can be found online.
These are some mini sweaters I made for the ladies that I knit with at work.
Not a knitting project, but this sock monster sure was fun to make. I worked with the basic instructions in "Sock Creatures" to make this for a friends baby.
I made these little Saartjes Booties for the friend of mine that received the woven baby blanket below. I figured since she had a very large baby (11 lbs 4 oz) that she deserved another little gift. These are made with some leftover Rowan Calmer I had.
Gathering Intentions - pattern by Fiona Ellis (Inspired Cable Knits), knit in Elann Peruvian Highland Wool. This sweater took me darned near forever to finish, but I am happy with it now that it is done. I hope to wear this a fair bit this winter.
This is the Sunrise Circle Jacket done in a handspun that is available at Unwind. I did this one as a shop sample. It is another great Kate Gilbert pattern.

This is my first weaving project - a baby blanket for my friend Rita. I am pretty happy with how it came out considering it was the first thing I had ever made on my loom (or first thing I will admit to). You can read more about it here
Socks for my sockapalooza pal. This pattern is from Dream in Color. I also made a shop sample for Unwind in this pattern.
This is the Dream in Color Shrug that I made in one weekend because I was so in love with the pattern. It is a great shrug and I use it quite a lot. You can read more about it here.

This is a close up of the first quilt I ever made. I gave this as a gift to my good friend Paul and his new wife Kate. More details here.
This is a baby blanket that I made for Janice out of Knit Picks Shine. You can read more about it and the baby shower I threw for her here.
This is a big thick novelty yarn scarf that I made for my niece as part of a package for her birthday. You can read more about it here.
I have made two of these umbilical cord hats for friends babies. This is made with Zara Plus leftover from making my friend Janice's Princess De.
This is a hand stitched book that I made missbedora for her birthday. Inside are all her blog entries from her different trips. You can read more about it here.
