Knitting has been done, really. I've made two Rikke hats, finished off a lace scarf from Kid Seta, finished off a pair of fingerless mitts and now I'm working on the 2nd of another pair. Problem is, photos aren't taken. But I'll uh...wax nostalgic on it.
Rikke Hats: One is handspun camel-colored alpaca. The cast-on is more stitches and I start decreasing at 7" instead of 9. I just don't have the need for another 2" in the hat. The second is a handspun merino in shades of red. That's the one that I have enough yarn left over for fingerless mitts. One is done, the 2nd one is on the needles.
The lace scarf: From Cascade Kid Seta. White in color, this thing took forever. Not because it was a hard pattern, but because I just lost all interest in it 1/2 way through the skein. It's now done, but I have to block it.
OH I found a hat that I really have a picture of:
It's a hat made from Knit Picks Palette. I made up the pattern. It's a bit snug, which is good while you're trying to refill pools and water buckets. The Rikke hats keep sliding down into my face.
