Update On Knitting

This past month I've been getting a head start on some of the presents that I have planned to make for Christmas this year. I've also had to make my own patterns for the hats and fingerless gloves as I couldn't find that right one. Not to mention that I had to teach myself how to do a thumb gusset. You know...where your thumb goes. So I now have two hat patterns, one fingerless glove pattern and now I'm working on the second fingerless glove pattern. It really has been a lot of fun! Here is one of the fingerless gloves that I finished last night:


This matches the hat that I made earlier. Here is a close up of the top of the glove.

Once I get the second pattern figured out and then knitted I'll post a picture of not only that one but of it's matching hat.

  1. Those are really cool! I am knitting some wash clothes to go in with people's presents/stockings. I am only on my second one, but they are so fun to make. Hope to make at least 4 of them.

  4. Kim,
    I love your blog! We have a lot in common, I believe. We will be married 18 years, I am also a "misplaced midwesterner" and I love crafts. Just started knitting but there really isn't a good knitting store around me (to teach and help:-) For now, my daughters and I are making huge chunky squares for a quilt. Your work is beautiful. If you know any basic hat patterns, let me know:-) We would love to make some for cancer patients.

For each comment I'll give my son a great big hug! He LOVES getting hugs!

Also...I don't mind links back to your blog but please DO NOT advertise all of your giveaways or products in my comment section. Recently this has become a problem and I have deleted these comments and will continue to do so.
