Well the small intended break got away from me, but lets hope thanks to some new technology and cold wet weather that creative happenings can get underway.
I did get some knitting done for Christmas gifts, only one of which I actually got around to taking a photo. One gift was a men's cowl, most of which was knitted in the hour and half drive to our Christmas get together, and having arrived early I managed to finish it in the car park in the extra 25mins! There were also a pair of fingerless mittens, knitted in Rowan Kidsilk Haze months ago, but stitched together enroute to lunch! After last years panic knitting in the week upto Christmas I was going to be so organised this year, but, well there's always next year!
The excellent quick one, completed in an hour, was this scarf - knitted in Rowan Kidsilk Creative. I have looked at these type of yarns many times and never been convinced they were for people who could actually knit, but being able to produce a reasonable gift in an hour is pretty convincing. I still no honestly don't know if I like it or not, but thousands of people have knitted them according to Ravelry- so I'm just hoping my sister-in-law does like it.
Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and best wishes for a creative New Year
