clcountry , can you show us the finished stocking? I definitely will! I still have a little finishing work I want to do first; plus it still needs to be blocked. I hope to finish it sometime next week!

Well, it’s better. Still not good, but I don’t have the patience to do it again. It’s definitely an issue with Kitchener stitch. It looks good!

Haven’t posted an update on my sweater in a while. The body is almost finished, then I just have to add sleeves! I tried it on today for length, and am pleased with how it looks before blocking. It’ll be a bit drapey on me after blocking, but it’s designed to have a couple of inches of positive ease. Can’t wait to get it finished! My original goal was Thanksgiving, and it’s looking like I’ll make it. Ignore my messy hair & no makeup look.

Walking60, it's beautiful!! I'm still so amazed at how a garment wears after blocking.

She’s done! And Podrick approves. I included a closeup of the border.

Walking60, I have so many ideas in my mind. I’m starting the cutest amigurumi Christmas animals as soon as my yarn arrives. I’ll go to tapatalk and post pictures. I have to make them because two are badgers and I love badgers.

Walking60, I can't wait to see the finished and blocked garment. It's already beautiful but this will be STUNNING.

Girlfriend is laying out to dry... I’m SO thrilled with the finished product and I can’t wait to wear it! For those wondering, it’s Sunset Highway by Kaitlyn Hunter.

A little afternoon project. I turned fleece into a scarf by punching holes and crocheting the ends. I have two more to make. One each for me and the girls.

You, Bing, and the hat are adorable! Love the ribbing.

I knit almost an entire hat last night (super bulky yarn) and then had to stop until I could get some DPN’s in the right size to finish the decreases. I went and got them pretty much as soon as I woke up today, and promptly screwed my hat up so bad I had to rip it all back. Grr. At least it won’t take me long to fix!
