Now that everyone has received their hand knitted gifts, I can share what I have been up to on my needles this fall and winter!

Knitted baby owl for my Mother.

Felted bag for my Mil.

Knitted white dove for Diane

Large felted market bag measuring 10" x 17" for Diane to carry to farmers market!

Cowl and hats - made a total of five cowls from this pattern and two hats from this sweet pink sparkly yarn.

I am taking a short knitting break!!!

Cathie loves that picture, too! She met Diane several years ago, and we both LOVED the radio shows over Christmas weekend, so she thinks Katin is just the greatest.

Can we come live with you all?

thanks.

Okay, we must talk. Is that

Okay, we must talk.

Is that picture of Katin and Diane the CUTEST THING EVER?!?

I can't even stand it.

And is she lucky, or what? That dove is so beautiful!

Awesome work, my friend.

I love the knitted gifts, who doesn't need a nice hat and a fun stuffed animal. The owl and the dove are so precious.

The owl is very cute and I love the colors on the market bag. I like the idea of team hats. I may have to make myself one in crimson and grey for the WSU Cougars.

Wow, girl, you went to town!!

Nice knitting!!! I especially loved the knitted white dove & the felted market bag - the colors of that were great. Did I read "knitting break?" No!!! I've been home and have a knitting or crochet project on every table in the house so no matter what room I'm in, I have something to work on, I can't imagine a break!

I have a bunch of holiday pictures on my camera that I should update my blog with, too - are you on Ravelry with your projects?

Thank you Tammy! Yes you

Thank you Tammy! Yes you read knitting break correctly. I too have several projects on the needles, but I think I over did it during Nov/Dec. Between knitting and blogging I think I "injured" my arms/shoulders/neck. Letting them have a rest. No knitting - and short posts - perfect for mobile devices! :-)

Ravelry! No. I was for awhile but have cancelled my menbership.

They are so nice! I love the

Diane the "list" will be made available to you on the 21st. when you come to teach me to crochet for the 50th time. ( Maybe i will get it this time!)

In any case - any sea creatures you want - they are yours!

Oh! Just gorgeous, each and every one!! Sure wish I knitted, but my fingers just want to crochet. :)

They all came out so great!

They all came out so great! I'm sure everyone loved getting them. Honestly I don't know where you found the time to knit/felt all this and do all your other projects this year. Do you have a knitting needles that knit on their own? If so can you please tell me where I can get a pair! I'm still trying to complete my mom's cabled scarf from the Christmas before this past one.

Why yes, Meg, I do have

Submitted by Pam on Fri, 01/13/2012 - 22:39.

Why yes, Meg, I do have knitting needles that knit on their own - I believe they are manufactured by Weasley and still can be found by searching in out of the way curio shops in England.

Well someone was a busy gal with the needles! Love the picture of Katin and Diane too - super cute!

I LOVE the blue and green bag. You must have knitted a sleeping bag before felting it!!

Yes Mary I did knit a

Submitted by Pam on Fri, 01/13/2012 - 22:28.

Yes Mary I did knit a sleeping bag to get this market bag!

And wrangling all that wet felted wool into shape was no picnic! But I loved knitting the pattern and my eyes loved working with Diane's color palette.

But I think the knitting kicked butt on the Pam front! Shoulders, back, arms - they don't like me so much these days! :-) - You noticed the post was uncharacteristically short and sweet?
