Halloween socks

I have added a black chain stitch. These were made using 9" circular needles.

Mittens

These 21 color mitts are made with Woolstok (100% Fine Highland Wool).
I will use the pattern again but with just 1 or 2 colors.

Hat made with 2 strands togheter

This hat is made out of 100% Merino Wool made in Italy. It is knit with two strands of yarn held together.

Fan and Feather pattern

This shawl/scarf is made using the fan and feather pattern. The yarn is from Southern Skeins 2022 Advent calendar.

Harry Styles Cardigan

After Harry Styles won a number of Grammys in 2023, I started watching Youtube videos of him performing and practicing. During one of his practices he wore a knit sweater with bold bright squares. I fell in love with it and decided to make it for my daughter. I used a chunky yarn just as the original. It was fun watching videos of others making their Harry cardigan. I spent most of my time from March 2023 to the beginning of September 2023 working on "Harry."

Hat

This hat is made from 70% alpaca and 30% extra-fine Merino wool. This is Really soft! The pattern is something I have never made before. It is called the Farrow Rib.

Log cabin Christmas

Each year my quilting group sponsors a quilt show. Each year it has a feature category. This year's feature category is Log Cabin. I have had this kit for probably 10 years and found this as the perfect use for it. I like using small quilts on my dining room table.
