It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

I've been knitting away trying to make Christmas presents. I think I've finally finished them. Although there may be one more that I need to do. Anyway...my sister-in-law asked for a hooded scarf and had found a picture of one that she liked. I interpreted the picture and made my own pattern of it. I began to call it the scarf of death, because it seemed like it would never end. I'm glad it's finally done.

After I finished the scarf I decided to make her a pair of handwarmers that I had seen on Ravelry thanks to Nicola. I am very happy with the end result. I found that I really have to pay attention to the pattern and it gets a little tough with 5 needles, but they are beautiful. I actual plan on making myself a pair now. The annoying thing was that I had gotten a ball of Bernat Alpaca to make these and with 3 rows left on the second glove I ran out of yarn. Now I had to go get more yarn just for 3 rows!!!!! Well with the rest of that yarn I decided to make a quick scarf for my grandmother who just turned 94 in November. I added some pink mohair to it (her favorite color is pink) to give it some color. I'm calling it the Cotton Candy Scarf. It's very soft and I'm sure she'll like it.
