WIP Wednesday

The last WIP Wednesday for 2011

Another pair of Garter Stitch Striped Mitts and a Scarf to match!

My winter coat and jacket are black.  What better way to accessorize than with a red and black (with a touch of grey) scarf and mitts.

The mitts need seamed and the scarf is over half done. 
I'll try to get it finished by Saturday night bringing my total finished projects for the year up to 32.  (that's 6 more than last year!)

It's addicting!

I can't stop!

I want to knit more of them!

This week I worked on the Advent Calendar Scarf

Monday night was the local Knitting Guild meeting.  Our program for the evening was on Fair Isle and Stranded Knitting.   We had a small project to try stranded knitting.  I finished mine the next day.  Cute little cup cozy.

Some progress made...

The Sweater Challenge week 8...NOT!

Scarf love!  YES!!

 Instead of the weekly update on the sweater challenge, we bring you this brief blog about scarf love.

I have 3 scarves on the needles and after seeing SuKnitWitty's new scarf obsession, I find I must start another scarf! I have the perfect yarn in my stash. So it will be a stash buster!  And bonus... I'll have a head start on Christmas gifts. win-win!!

 To get back to the scarves...

... I need to get a cable scarf finish for a class I am teaching. So my Advent Calendar Scarf and my Glitter Scarf are now on hold along with my Entomology Scarf.

So I told the Wed Knit girls I'd be working on my scarf and they could take a break from their sweater knitting.  SuKnitWitty was all for that since she is currently obsessed with the Progressive Scarf.  Gina didn't get the memo. But, she has a deadline to meet on a hat project. So it was Scarves and a Hat Wednesday!

And of course there was plenty of tea!
