The 100th Post

How fitting to have the 100th post on the last day of 2008. A short run down of the projects that have been underway these last few weeks. I now have only 1 item to complete...the Shaped Edge Sweater that has been one of those UFO's since the beginning of the year, way back in February. If you feel the need to read about the early history of this poor sweater you can go here, more here, and finally. Oh, and who could forget about the Finishing Class at Purl Jam...where my sweater's seaming was begun!
When I put it away last March I only had the one sleeve left which I kept pushing to the back burner until this last week. I had nothing on the needles and no excuses for not pulling it out. Funny too because it hasn't taken long...maybe 2 days to get the sleeve done and join everything so I could knit the collar.

All I have left to do is finish the seaming...maybe later today? Maybe.

Other projects done:

Two Felted Slipped Stitch handbags for my sister & aunt......















A dozen or so felted snowmen....just forgot to get a photo of everyone together.









I also did a narrow ruffled edged scarf for Oldest GF...a new Hokie!




She also deserved a pair of Hokie Jaywalker's...
love the patterning of the Scarlet Fleece Sock Yarn!








A really cute set of mini mittens I used as a Christmas Tag on my sister's handbag...
