It's Still New Year's Eve To Me
I worked tonight until 11:30. So I didn't make it home until after the clock struck midnight. I'm not a HUGE New Year's person. So that's just fine by me. But I did promise to show you the last 2 FO's of '08.
Baby's First Merlot
Pattern: Baby Mine by Yarn Harlot
Yarn: Yarntini Merino Sport in Merlot
Needles: Knit Picks US size 5
Date Started: 12/6/08
Date Finished: Knitting- 12/12/08, Buttons- 12/31/08
Mods: None
The buttons are shell from JoAnn's. In person, they reflect the pink a lot better than they do in photographs. It was decided that the baby born in October is too big for this little sweater. So I'll have to start something else for her. Oh well, there are lots of babies coming and I'm sure one of them will fit into this perfectly.
Stripey Scout Socks
Pattern: My own toe up formula
Yarn: Knit Picks Sock Blank that I dyed in Scout's dyeing class
Needles: Addi Turbo US Size 1.5
Date Started: 9/14/08
Date Finished: 12/29/08
Since the yarn was dyed as double knit fabric, the stripes match up perfectly. I even wore them to work tonight. Love 'em!
Happy New Year!!!!!

Love the projects! That little sweater - is that just one skein of the sport? I love it. And those socks - too cool for school!

That is a beautiful sweater! I'm as curious as Peaknit - is that just one skein of sport wt yarn for the sweater? I have that exact color from Yarntini!
I love the socks - enough to brighten up even the lousiest of shifts at work! :) Happy New Year! PS - I work tomorrow, and then all next week. It's in the world of nursing. Never a holiday enjoyed on time....SIGH........
