I’ve got a lot of knitting to do! Here’s what’s coming and links to the patterns on Ravelry and the yarn I’m using.

| Ravelry: Odessa by Grumperinag |
Odessa hat for Sue. I’ve already started this one, in a turquoise color. I shortened it by a 20 cast on stitches because Sue has a small head and I’m not using a DK weight. I don’t know what the yarn is I’m using, it is worsted and I got it at Joann’s on an end-cap, I just hope I have enough.

Ravelry: Thermis by Kris Knits
Knit Picks: Cadena in Platinum (Bulky)
|
Thermis cowl for Rebekah. This is one of my favorite knits. It is super cozy and soft and I’ve made it multiple times. The pattern is $2.49 but I’ve made it like 4 times, worth it!

| Ravelry: The Inga Hat |
The Inga hat, for me. I’m not great at colorwork, but I just got a colorwork thumb thing to make it easier. I’m obsessed with this hat, it is gorgeous. I bought yarn to make two of them.
Knit Picks 1st hat: Coal, White, Saffron accent
2nd hat: Dusk, Peapod, Gulfstream accent. The colors of the second hat are up in there air because I bought a bunch of other colors too, but that’s what I’m leaning towards.

| Who needs a pattern! Not me! |
This last one is yet another project for Rebekah, she’s been bugging me to knit for her for a while now so I’m finally getting down to it. There’s not pattern for this one, but it is pretty much a huge circle in st st. I’m using a bulky knit from Knit Picks in a beautiful red. I got new 10 and 13 interchangeable circs and a 40″ cord. I’ll post pictures of my progress.
Knit Picks: Saffron
UPDATE: Well, as noted in my most recent post (1.8.12) life has has a lot of ups and downs the last 6 weeks. But, I have completed the Inga hat in a wonderful black, red and white. I’ll be making another. The only problem is the damn brim keeps rolling and I think it needs some fleece sewed in the brim. I also completed the Odessa hat but Sue still hasn’t gotten it. Either I’ve been sick or she’s been in Europe! I’m finishing up another hat, a slouchy one, that’s not even on this list for Vani that was her xmas present. Don’t worry Rebekah! I’m still working on your giant cowl thinger, after I screwed it up twice.
