I fail at blogging...

...Turns out, I don't have nearly as much time as I thought I did to keep a blog active. I'm so sorry!

To make up for this, I'm posting some of my finished knitted items, and hopefully by Christmas I will have a pattern up for this:

Rosette Cowl by Corina Irvine
Lion Brand Thick and Quick

I don't want to say too much about this cowl right now (saving it for next post), but I will say that it was a fairly fast knit and would make a great last-minute gift for someone. I've also finished a couple other items, like these really cute kitten mittens:

"Kitten Mittens" by Noelle Dempsey
Shepherds Shades in Cream, and scraps
of sock yarn for the details
For a friend's niece
Ravelry link

Aren't they the cutest little things? I suppose the scale is hard to judge, but they're just itty-bitty (6cm wide, 12cm long). They were really easy to make, the pattern was well-written, and they only took a couple of nights to make. The hardest part was finding the 'perfect' yarn to make the eyes and nose. I ended up splitting some black Cascade220 into two strands to make the mouth and eye pupils. Stay tuned, I'll post more pictures and projects, a new pattern (and hopefully a more interesting post!) when I have a few days off.
